Support services for Latinx, first generation, or other underrepresented populations.
The Purchase Success Network organizes and coordinates efforts on behalf of our students, particularly, but not exclusively, first-generation freshmen. The Purchase Success Network is a web of support services including: advising, monitoring, encouragement, and overall student advocacy. One of our goals is to make sure that students do not fall “between the cracks.” A free, three-day summer orientation program is also provided to assist the needs of this population. The Success Network also runs programs and events to support degree completion.
