The OAS has also provided ample opportunities to become self-reliant, work on time management, take advantage of services available at the school."

"Ever since I started going to the OAS Support Program, I have been much more organized, confident, and my grades have improved significantly."

"I proactively took full advantage of the services available through the Office of AccessAbility and truly believe they were instrumental for making my freshman year so successful and helped me achieve my personal goal of getting Deans list first semester."

"Whenever I struggle in a class, I ask the OAS strategies of how I can succeed in my classes. Whenever I need help with my social skills and academics, I always turn to the OAS."

"What I enjoy the most is learning new social skills from my mentor. I was able to make friends using these skills."
