it’s all about the - LEARNING

Making the grade in college

There’s no doubt about it: learning is an intensive activity and it is your primary reason for being here. That’s why CALLS specializes in helping you acquire the skills needed to succeed in life and as an Assumption student. We specialize in assisting you as you explore academic, personal and career goals, prioritize tasks, and get involved in campus life.

Sure you’re at Assumption to obtain your degree. But learning doesn’t stop with the end of a course or graduation. The fact is that the skills you learn during every aspect of your college years will help you throughout life.

I love the CALLS program! It is something unique that Assumption offers. Students begin portfolios as freshmen, which means that by the end of their senior year, all their accomplishments, academic and extra curricular are all recorded in one easily accessible location. This will put us a step ahead of our peers when we start to apply for summer jobs, internships, and graduate schools.
