The NDSU Office of Orientation and Student Success is changing its name to Student Success Programs, effective Nov. 1. The new name is broad in scope and unites the programs of the office under the umbrella of student success.

Programs of the department have not changed, and include ACE – a tutoring and study center – and Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse Prevention Programs, Athletic Academics, Family Programs, Orientation and Welcome Week.

The website address, phone number, postal address and location of the office remain the same. Individual programs will continue be accessible through the main Student Success Programs website at www.ndsu.edu/studentsuccess or in the alphabetical listing on the NDSU home page.

NDSU is recognized as one of the nation's top 108 public and private universities by the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education.
