StrongPoints® is a defining element of the Meredith College experience. Through this comprehensive and intentional initiative, students identify their strengths and interests, examine potential career paths, and explore academic and experiential activities. They work with faculty and staff to choose classes and activities that help them build on their strengths, broaden their experiences, and reach their goals. They also develop skills critical to setting priorities and solid financial planning that help them achieve their goals – today, and throughout their lives.
Students begin by identifying their strengths using a research-based assessment tool. Then, throughout their time at Meredith, they examine how those strengths can help them shape their academic goals, experiential involvement, financial decision-making and career planning, and career choice. Students benefit from individualized guidance of faculty and staff.
StrongPoints® is designed to result in
- Greater likelihood of academic and professional success;
- Increased self-awareness;
- Greater likelihood of completing a degree within four years;
- Stronger connections with faculty and staff;
Confidence in creating a functional plan with concrete priorities, goals, and strategies for lifelong success.
