Success. Transition. Education. Progression.

What is STEP? 
STEP (which stands for Success, Transition, Education & Progression) is a program designed to help incoming students get started on the right path. STEP is intended to foster your success as a student by introducing you to your faculty advisor, providing a campus tour and answering all your questions. The day revolves around the Group Faculty Advising Meetings. Come before or stay after your meeting to take full advantage of the planned events.
