STUDENT SUCCESS & CAREER SERVICES

The Student Success and Career Services Center is a great resource for you to start your college career right! We offer the means to help you start your journey on the right foot and succeed as you venture into your career here at the University of Valley Forge. We accomplish this by identifying the academic or personal struggles you might have, reaching out, and coming alongside you to assist in improving your academic progress and personal goal building. This gives the opportunity to make improvements that will contribute to your overall success long after graduation.

Student Success provides one-on-one interaction with Student Links, other students who help provide a smooth transition from high school to college and ease you into life at UVF. We stay actively involved on campus, so we understand the highs and lows of day-to-day student life. Our doors are open to all students seeking help, as well as those just looking for great coffee, fellowship, and a place of solace.

Student Success also provides career tools and resources designed to help you find jobs while in school and give career direction as you prepare for graduation or graduate studies.

The Career Services Center (found in the Student Success Center) is committed to ensuring both current University of Valley Forge students and alumni gain and optimize internship and employment opportunities. The services this office provides includes but is not limited to: career counseling, interest assessments, mock interviews, career exploration, development and planning, graduate or professional school search/job search, and résumé assistance.
