Gps For Student Success Class

I often hear “students would be more successful if . . . “ Did you know at Mid-State, there is a class for that? GPS is a 1credit first year experience class required by all Mid-State program students and recommended before finishing the first 12 credits of the program. The goal of the course is to provide skills for each student that lay the foundation for success in college.

GPS COMPETENCIES & OBJECTIVES

Gps Bootcamp

Many students choose to take the GPS Bootcamp, a 5 day GPS course, prior to the start of the semester. Students who take advantage of this option (over the 8 week option), have all of the success tools before they step foot into a program or Gen Ed class including practice in Blackboard, study skills, knowledge of Mid-State Resources, time management and more.
