NSSC Student Success Model

MSU has committed to support the ongoing learning and persistence of its students, and the belief that all undergraduate student can graduate. We are committed to helping our students reduce their time and cost of degree as they navigate the right academic path, grow their knowledge, pursue their passion and discover their purpose. 

MSU aims to increase our overall graduation rate to 82% by 2020. As a part of achieving this goal, we are focused on closing opportunity gaps for lower-income, first-generation, and underrepresented marginalized student populations. With all this in mind we bring you our model for student success.
