SUNY Korea launched the Access to Excellence (AE) Program on January 13, 2025, welcoming 53 prospective students who will join the incoming freshmen class this Spring semester. First initiated in 2022, the AE Program is designed to help incoming freshmen adjust to the academic and social environment of an American university. This two-weeks program – which lasts until January 24, 2025 – will provide the participants with essential pre-university skills, enabling a smooth transition into their academic journey at SUNY Korea.
The AE Program offers a comprehensive schedule that combines English and Mathematics sessions with structured evening tutoring, as these core subjects are critical throughout their college years. The students will undergo a thorough assessment of their academic abilities and identify areas for improvement. Additionally, students will be able to interact early with their peers, fostering connections even before the Spring 2025 semester begins.
Each day, the morning sessions focus on academic English, while the afternoon sessions are dedicated to Mathematics. To maximize learning and retention, evening study sessions are led by teaching assistants (TAs), providing personalized tutoring and support.
Over all, the SUNY Korea AE Program reflects the institution’s commitment to excellence by equipping participants with the tools necessary for academic and personal success. This transformative experience ensures that students enter their university journey well-prepared and connected to a supportive community.
