"This program gives first-year college students an engaging, appealing, and encouraging introduction to higher education with a focus on mind-set and taking ownership of their college experience, and with tools to help them succeed in college and beyond. Creating The Future You takes a student-centric approach to fostering success through a concise, highly personalized, format, recognizing that student beginning their college studies at any given institution come to that institution from a variety of geographic locations and socioeconomic backgrounds, varied perspectives on social issues, and differing levels of academic ability, each with their own set of hopes and dreams for the future. Readings and video presentations are just the beginning from which students then personalize the experience through engagement with self-assessments, reflection activities, and action steps in a framework for conversations about key issues that can impact student performance and full engagement with the college experience.
