Academic Support System

Our students are drawn to Clarkson’s tight-knit community feeling, where they are treated as unique individuals with something to contribute to both our campus and society.

  • We know that our rigorous academics require a highly supportive environment, so we take extra steps to provide caring and knowledgeable faculty and staff to all of our students.
  • Each undergraduate student has at least one professional advisor, a first-year mentor and the staff members of both our Counseling Center and Student Success Center.
  • Asking for help is celebrated at Clarkson, with over 30% of students using our academic support services and over 50% using our health and counseling services every year.
  • We continue to expand our direct and indirect services in mental health, wellness and accessibility to meet the needs of our diverse student body.
