“What I appreciate so much about the OAR is that they recognize that academic performance is so closely tied to a variety of other factors in a student’s life. When I meet with the staff, I’m not simply talking about my classes or my schedule, but we’re also discussing life and the factors of being a student that can impede my ability to be academically efficient in the way that I want to be.”
