The purpose of the FYEP is to further the goals of
Rust College by providing a quality program of
general education which meets the needs of
students at different levels of ability and academic
preparation.

system (EWS) is a computer-based program
collecting first year students’ absences and
tardiness on a daily basis.
Grades First – Retention management system that
gathers information in real-time at the “point of
instruction.” It enables schools to identify at-risk
students and prioritize services for their benefit.
Male Mentor Program – Male students paired with
a faculty or staff counselor. Academic and personal
concerns discussed on a regular basis.
Cope Center – The COPE Center is to aid in
student retention. It helps students to identify
emotional, mental health and personal challenges
that my interfere with retention.
Student Support Services is aimed to increase
retention and graduation rates of eligible students,
and foster and institutional climate supportive of the
success of low income and first generation college
students and individuals with disabilities.
