At MSU, we believe that all admitted students have the ability to learn, persist, and succeed. We are committed to creating equitable pathways to enable students to do so. Follow the latest updates about MSU's student success initiatives.
If we are to be serious about Michigan State’s role as a student success leader, we must be equally serious about identifying where our systems fall short. Then we must commit collectively to improving our policies, processes, practices, and culture. I have called this “moving the needle.” We know that moving the needle is not accidental. It is the result of naming problems clearly, aligning institutional will, and sustaining effort long enough to see meaningful gains.
Over the last eight years, we have most certainly moved the needle on student success at MSU.
