Student Success Center
The Student Success Center (SSC) offers a quiet study area, free one-on-one tutoring, identification cards, and proctor computer-based tests, such as Compass, and paper quizzes/tests. The SSC also offers a variety of software such as Plato learning systems, Mavis Beacon typing software and the Rosetta Stone Spanish language acquisition software which are self-paced tutorial programs. Connected to the SSC are the Education Resource Center (ERC), room 126 and an open computer lab, room 127 for NMSU students only. The ERC has 14 Apple iBook laptop computers, educational training videos, and pre-K through Grade 8 literature. The open computer lab contains 27 Dell desktop computers with 2007 Microsoft software for students currently enrolled at NMSU to use for e-mails and completing papers.
Placement Testing:
All students needing to take a Compass placement test must first "pre-register" with
an advisor at the front office or contact Beth Armstead at (505) 287-6628 for further
information.
Online Testing:
We periodically administer student tests from other colleges or universities at a
student's request (pre-arrangement with instructor required). Please contact Student
Success Coordinator for more information.
