Strategic Plan 2026-2029

FORGE CONFIDENT JOURNEYS

We recognize that student success depends not only on academic achievement, but also on a learner’s ability to navigate the complex transitions that shape the college experience.

Students face challenges differently, and because of that, Cedar Crest will create a more integrated and student-centered model of support.

Connecting advising, career preparation, wellness, accessibility, and learning support will create a coherent and coordinated student experience while fostering a sense of belonging, the development of character, and moral agency.

We believe that every student deserves equitable access to the guidance, resources, opportunities, and sense of belonging necessary to thrive. By creating an inclusive, student-centered experience, we are committed to helping learners of all backgrounds and life stages thrive.

Waypoint Objectives:

  • Student Navigation
    Ensure that learners encounter clear navigation and consistent guidance throughout their educational journey—from enrollment to graduation to career.
  • Support for Students
    Foster a caring and inclusive community while providing intentional structures of support promoting resilience, self-efficacy, and belonging to all students.
  • Career Confidence
    Strengthen the connection between learning and opportunity, giving students professional confidence, practical experience, and transferable skills necessary to thrive.

Milestone Initiatives:

  • Coordinate experiences across enrollment, academic advising, career services, and life circumstances support so students never have to start over explaining where they are
  • Expand access to mental health, wellness, and resilience-building resources for students navigating academic and personal challenges
  • New structures for connection and responsive support systems that help every student feel they belong
  • Intentional programs that build students’ capacity for ethical reasoning, self-authorship, and principled decision-making
  • Grow experiential learning, internship, and one-on-one career coaching opportunities that connect classroom learning to real-world confidence
