Student Success Center

At Midland, we want to make sure students have the tools necessary to succeed. That’s why, at the Student Success Center, you’ll find a team of professional advisors who actively engage students, monitor progress, and encourage habits that lead to success. 

Student Success Center Team

First-year students will be assigned an advisor who will help them connect and belong at Midland. The First Year Advisor will serve as both a mentor and resource to help guide students during their college transition. First-Year Advisors are intentionally paired with extracurricular activities to best support students during their athletic competitions and performing arts involvement and to communicate with coaches and directors often. Our goal for students during their first year is to make sure that their overall college experience starts off on the right foot and that students are achieving first-year success in and out of the classroom. 

Similarly, upper-level students will be paired with a Program Advisor who specializes in the student’s program of study based on major. Program Advisors work closely with faculty and staff within their assigned academic programs in order to best guide students on their 4-year plan based on prerequisites and course rotations. We collaborate with each student to create individualized graduation plans that are tailored to every student’s future career goals. Program Advisors work with their advisees from their second year to graduation to help develop who they are and determine what type of leader they want to be to become career-ready by graduation.

Students can think of their Advisor as their one-stop-shop for all things Midland, including class information, schedules, drop/add details, and information about various other campus resources. Student Success Advisors are available to support students at every step of their academic progression.
