Student Success
The Office of Student Success is responsible for providing services to perspective, current, and former students in terms of program and application information, university, college, and program requirements, programmatic and academic advising, and resources for former students and alumni. Our overarching goal is to assist students in navigating the College of Education and Human Development (CEHD) and the larger UMass Boston system. Working closely with our faculty, we provide support for students to successfully complete their program.
