The SOAR (Student Outreach, Advisement and Retention) Office presented at the Virtual 2023 SUNY Student Success Summit on April 28.
Associate Dean of Academic Advisement and Retention Matthew Howe led the presentation describing the myriad interdepartmental efforts currently underway by the entire SOAR team and many other areas to improve student success and retention at HVCC. One prominent highlight was the College’s record retention rate of 61.7% realized this past Fall 2022 semester.
