Student Success Center
The mission of the Student Success Center is to support all Newman University students on their academic journey. Use Accudemia to schedule your SSC appointments or ask a front desk SSC assistant for help.
The Student Success Center is a central campus meeting place that offers academic recovery support, accommodations for students with disabilities, career services, mental health services, testing and tutoring services, and F-1 international student support. Sacred Grounds Cafe is located here and open Monday-Friday from 9am to 5pm. We understand that each student’s journey to success is unique. It is our goal to see all Newman students academically thrive. Stop by the Student Success Center to learn more!
