AIM was created to provide early intervention for
students who experience academic problems at ABAC.
AIM Mentors guide their students to resources on campus
which can enhance the learning process,
such as tutoring services, workshops, and counseling.
Over fifty AIM mentors volunteer from the
college's faculty, staff, and administration. They
believe students can benefit from their guidance and
expertise in academic areas. Mentors meet with
their students individually on a pre-arranged
schedule to discuss anything from time management
and study skills to career and transfer plans. The program is targeted primarily at students who
have been placed on academic probation; however,
students are encouraged to voluntarily enter the
program at any time.
Students are paired with mentors who work with them to
develop a plan of action to solve their own problems, with
the assistance of the college, and to identify help within the academic structure. Students who participate in the AIM Mentoring
program return to "Good Academic Standing" in large numbers.
