Student Success Center

Fostering Success Program, LEAD Program, Non-Traditional Student Services Program

The Student Success Center houses three important programs within the Office of Student Experience and Transformation Department: Fostering Success and LEAD Summer Bridge Program

Bridge Program: LEADERSHIP, EMPOWERMENT AND DISCOVERY (LEAD)

LEAD is a summer bridge program that is focused on increasing first-year undergraduate students’ sense of belonging at UWSP. The program is aimed at providing a supportive community that promotes student success by getting first-year undergraduate students ahead and ready to start their college careers. It focuses on campus resources, transitioning into college, student success skills, social and enrichment activities and the development of future campus leaders.

The University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point exists upon land inhabited by the indigenous people of this area, including the Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Ojibwe, Potawatomi, and the many other nations and groups that predate colonial borders. We acknowledge that with colonization Native American people have been dispossessed of their lands and irreparably changed by the actions of individuals and institutions. We acknowledge our responsibility to understand and respond to those actions. In partnership with the Native American Center, we commit to working together to honor the past, be intentional in the present, and to build our future with truth.
