Advancing Success in Associate Pathways (ASAP)

ASAP provides students with the support they need to finish their degree on time at the two-year level. The supports include cost of attendence award, textbook assistance, financial monthly incentives, personalized advisement and academic services, and career development activities.

ASAP at SUNY Jefferson assists students in earning their associate degree as quickly as possible with the goal of graduating in 3 years or less. Students receive dedicated academic, financial and personal support from a dedicated ASAP advisor. In addition students will benefit from career counseling, a monthly incentive of either a gas card or a grocery card, textbook assistance and a Cost of Attendance Award (after financial aid has been applied) if needed.
