Student persistence is one of many indicators of a college's success. In Fall, we heavily emphasize retention of our first-year students as this is a critical transition time. We do this by hosting our CTAHR New Student Orientation which introduces new students, both high school and transfer students, to their new support team, including others in their cohort, faculty, alumni, and advisors. This event provides them the tools to be successful, examples include tutoring and emotional support services. Subsequently, the first-ever CTAHR internship fair served to provide professional experiences to students earlier on in their academic careers to provide them with the skills and training to qualify them for more advanced positions in their junior and senior years.
