Mission

The First Year Success system supports the TCC mission and college-wide commitment to student success by providing comprehensive services to assist new students of all ages and backgrounds with their transition to the higher education learning environment. The FYS system builds the foundation for first year students to initiate their integration into the intellectual, social, and cultural climate of TCC while promoting academic success and creating a sense of community.

Purpose

The First Year Success system is designed to improve learning for new students during their first year of college in efforts to assist them in achieving academic and personal success. 

Recognizing that most students need additional assistance as they transition to college, the comprehensive orientation system includes four components:
