COntact With BEAM
BEAM would like to have two types of communication with you during your semesters:
Once a month, the College Success Coordinator will reach out for a short check in via text or email.
For STEM majors, the College Success Coordinator will schedule a meeting for a personal check in and plan for the next few months via video chat or in person. We will talk about course planning, look for career mentor, and a community help you feel support in your STEM field
We will also have an event in the winter for alumni to reunite and share their experiences with each other. We will send more information about that in the coming months.
