CPP Early Support
About Us
Within the Bronco Advising Center, our Early Support team collaborates with various campus partners and instructors to provide proactive, holistic advising and student support services. Our goal is to connect with students as early as possible in their academic journey and identify any resources or support needed to help you successfully complete their courses this term.
Unexpected challenges can happen to all of us. If you are encountering any challenges this semester, our Early Support team is here to ensure that you receive timely support.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our meeting goal is to discuss your academic progress this term. While our meetings are not mandatory, we strongly believe in the importance of frequent advising and are here to support your academic and personal success. There are a wide range of resources at CPP to support your academic success, and we will center our conversation around what you need.
We have been conducting these meetings since Spring 2020. We have found that students who meet with us develop longterm success strategies and made improvements in their course progress.
