Tompkins Cortland Community College has introduced the ASAP program to help students finish associate degrees faster and with fewer barriers, according to Tompkins Weekly.
The Advancing Success in Associate Pathways (ASAP) program offers financial aid, textbook support, transportation help, and personal advising. Over 150 TC3 students are already enrolled. Early data shows ASAP students outperform peers in credit completion and retention.
Backed by SUNY and state leaders, the program aims to improve graduation rates and reduce dropouts. Students say ASAP’s support systems are making a real difference.
