MISSION STATEMENT

Success "Student-Athletes Understand that Character Creates Educational Self-Sufficiency"
The mission of the UCLA Academic & Student Services Office (AS2) and its S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Program is to provide an interactive learning environment that emphasizes life-long learning habits, goal setting, teamwork, leadership and character. Centered on the idea of the self-sufficient, independent learner, the S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Program features academic counseling, academic and student support services, and student-athlete development programs that support and motivate student-athletes to reach their full potential academically and personally. The AS2 team promotes a healthy balance between academics and athletics, and embraces UCLA's "True Bruin" philosophy setting forth the ethical standards of integrity, excellence, accountability, and respect. Our commitment is to assist student-athletes in their transition to the university, earn their UCLA degree, and develop their skills and confidence to be champions in life.
