Administration

Bridget C. Rose, Director
Penny S. Seals, Associate Director

The mission of the Academic Success Center (ASC) is to facilitate students’ successful transition through Samford University by identifying and providing academic resources in a highly collaborative and student-centered manner.

The director and associate director work with Admissions, the schools, Career Development, and the Office of Accessibility and Accommodations to provide academic assistance as needed. First-year students, both entering freshmen and transfer students, are encouraged to take advantage of the Center’s services.

Academic Support

The ASC assists students in locating campus resources that promote academic success. Interested students can schedule an appointment to discuss their individual situation and needs. The ASC provides additional support and resources to conditionally-admitted students, at-risk students, or students placed on academic warning.

Tutoring is available in several general education courses through a partnership between the ASC and various departments. The ASC also maintains a list of private tutors in various subjects. For current tutoring schedules, please visit the website at www.samford.edu/academic-success-center/.

The ASC also works with faculty and professional advisors to support the advising process. First-year students and transfer students in particular can receive assistance in changing or declaring majors.
