This Quality Enhancement Plan, titled "Ready. Set. Soar.", focuses on improving new student onboarding to enhance student success, persistence, retention, and timely graduation rates. It outlines three core strategies: a welcoming new student orientation, a first-semester anchor course emphasizing career and transfer skills, and guided pathways for essential planning and credential completion. The plan aims to achieve a 2% annual growth across five key success measures, including credit hour completion, gateway course completion, specific course completion (ACA 122/WBL 110), degree/transfer/enrollment rates, and student engagement. This is a 5-year plan being rolled out starting in 2024.
