Did you know; that your comfort with resource access and your overall performance in the first year of college typically predicts how successful you will be for the remaining three years? Your first year is where you begin to make connections on campus with peers, staff, and faculty. These connections begin to build your network of support for years to come.
ROAR stands for Recognizing Opportunities Achieving Results. The program is focused on providing advocacy and customized support to first year students. This effort is designed to ensure that first year students have what they need to be successful, which aligns with the college’s mission to empower students to succeed.
Currently, any perspective first year student that confirms their attendance at Buffalo State College and is not enrolled in any other support program on campus is eligible to participate. Students who are accepted to Buffalo State through Honors, EOP, or as an International Student are currently ineligible for services through the Roar 2 Success program.
