Gateway to Success
The Gateway to Success Program supports admitted students who demonstrate potential for academic achievement from enrollment to graduation (and beyond). As a part of a cohort, you will complete a five-week summer bridge program, make connections with peers and Arcadia community members, and participate in activities and workshops that will help you develop time management skills, set academic goals, and more.
Steps To Success
Once you’re admitted into Gateway, you will join a cohort of fellow first-year students, meet with your Gateway adviser each semester to discuss your academic progress and goals, engage in academic workshops hosted by Gateway staff, and connect with campus resources (including career education, tutoring, and student affairs).
Objectives First Year and Beyond
- Pre-First Year: Summer Bridge
- First Year: Transition, Major/Career
- Second Year: Major/Career, Study Abroad
- Third Year: Internships, Leadership
- Fourth Year: Post-graduation Plans
- Alumni: Mentoring, Networking
As a Gateway student, you are expected to set goals, use the resources provided, and work independently to make good academic decisions.
Summer Bridge
Our summer bridge program is structured to provide selected Gateway students with a “early start” to the rigors of the college experience.
