GROUP BEYOND ACCESS

  • Students joining Group Beyond Access will have the ability to participate in interactive small group presentations each week. Here they will have discussions with staff members from the Waterbury Campus. They will hear about campus resources that help foster success and make connections.
  • The goal of this program is to help students experience what resources are at their students’ fingertips.
  • At the same time our Beyond Access Strategy Instructors will be supporting the presentation themes on goal setting, time management, how to get involved, notetaking technologies, and mindfulness.
  • Comradery becomes a motivation for the participants as they all build a strong sense of awareness.
  • Weekly Check-Ins with A Strategy Instructor (SI) are also an important part of this program. This is where students will work with a Strategy Instructor for 30 minutes. They will set individual goals and focus on topics like time management, goal setting and plan out each week how to complete assignments for success.
  • Study Hall Check Ins - Waterbury Students can check into a virtual study hall to have additional check ins on assignments during the week.
  • Building additional commonalities and learning how to avoid typical college student hurdles is important. When registering for classes, we recommend that 2-3 students take at least one general education course together. This helps to foster many real time, unique and authentic conversations in our weekly group meetings.

INDIVIDUAL BEYOND ACCESS
Students also have the option to register for our nationally recognized Beyond Access support program for individuals. This individualized program can build customized supports for each participant in the areas of academics, personal growth and career readiness.
