Immigrant Student Success Office
Mission
The mission of the Immigrant Student Success Office (ISSO) is to recruit, enroll, and retain students, with an emphasis on new immigrants, such as students granted Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) who identify with the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act (DREAMERS), and first-generation students by providing the necessary academic and non-academic support to ensure graduation from Brooklyn College in a timely manner.
Vision
The vision is to provide mentoring in addition to creating a safe space, where all students from the Brooklyn College community are treated with respect and dignity, using an integrated/holistic network of resources to reach the desired goal of completing a college degree armed with the knowledge, skills, and abilities to obtain successful careers.
