OUR MISSION

The Office of Student Experience and Transformation (SET) aims to provide support to pre-college and college students who need help with their transition to the UWSP campus community. SET serves as a welcoming campus resource that provides academically and culturally integrated transformative experiences. SET empowers student development, connects first-generation students, and celebrates all students’ lived experiences and campus communities.

OUR VISION

To foster transformative learning through integrated and human-centered community experiences.

PATHWAYS TO SUCCESS

We provide intentional pathways that support students from pre-college preparation to graduation through the Summer Bridge Program (LEAD), the First-Year Experience course, and ongoing wraparound support from TRiO Student Support Services.

COLLEGE ACCESS: PRE-COLLEGE PROGRAMS

For high school students interested in a pre-college program, English for College or Upward Bound might be the right fit for you!

Student Experience and Transformation
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.
