ACAD 101: An Academic Success Course for First-Year Students
Student Testimonials for ACAD 101
“Bronco BASE Camp has been a tremendously helpful class. Between the invaluable mindset around learning, the campus resources I learned about, and the time management skills I was able to pick up, I feel much more confident in my ability to succeed as a student. While I definitely have a long way to go in some regards, I’m sure that as my time at Boise State continues I will be able to accomplish my goals, due in large part to what I learned in this class.”
“Overall, BASE Camp taught me that success comes from being proactive, applying strategies that match each class, and continuing to work on my weaknesses. I feel more prepared for college and more confident moving forward with the rest of my semester!”
“I am extremely grateful I took this course. It truly helped me feel more connected and prepared. I now have a much wider network of people who are there to help me, and a much better understanding of what is offered to me as a student. This class itself has already reduced a majority of my stress surrounding my success and opened me up to new ideas and habits I never thought possible.”
