Academic Support Services

The Center for Student Success

The Center for Student Success (CSS) provides academic advising for all students. Academic advising for undergraduate transfer students is coordinated in the CSS. The Center administers Monmouth’s Early Warning System (MEWS) for all students. MEWS is used to identify students who are experiencing academic difficulty and connects them to their advisors and/or appropriate learning resources across campus. Advising for undeclared sophomores is designed to help with exploration of different majors while taking courses that satisfy degree requirements. Students are required to declare a major no later than the end of sophomore year. Additionally, throughout the year, the CSS offers numerous workshops related to academic, personal, and career topics.

Career Development

Career Development helps students explore career options, develop career readiness skills, and prepare for life after Monmouth. Services include career coaching, career assessments, résumé and cover letter reviews, interview preparation, internship and job search assistance, and career planning.

Students can connect with employers through career fairs, networking events, on-campus recruiting, and Handshake, Monmouth's online career platform for jobs, internships, events, and appointments. Career Development also provides ongoing support to alumni as they navigate career transitions and pursue professional growth throughout their careers.
