Initiative Title	First Year Experience Program
Submitted in Previous Year(s)	2020
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale	The need for stronger transitional support into college, time management, study skills, and other non-academic learning emerges in multiple areas of SUNY Orange student assessment—from the CSI, student-lead panels, to in-house surveys (as well as echoed in broader best practice recommendations for community college student success support). College readiness or First Year Experience programming can be offered in the form of in-class workshops, open workshops, supplemental learning (SI) and tutoring sessions, and covers goal-setting, social skills, as well as study skills that apply to all areas of a student's life. More intentional college readiness support that knits together the Advising's First Year Support team with support initiatives that are already in place at SUNY Orange will equip students for success not only in their coursework but also as professionals in their chosen careers. In order to support a meaningful enhancement of Center for Student Success services to align these student success strategies, we would require an increase in funds to staff tutors in order to meet increased student demand.
Consequences of this initiative not being funded	The inability to address student's needs as seen through the CSI, CCSSE, and in-house evaluations. The inability to align with Guided Pathway and Title V goals.
Department Goals	Support the recommendations of the Guided Pathways Initiative and Title V.
