LSSO
The Latine Student Success Office (LSSO) is your space for student services, especially as they relate to the Latine community. LSSO grew out of a student and faculty vision to improve support and access to Cornell’s excellent educational resources for students of the Latine community.
What does LSSO do?
Our mission at the Latine Student Success Office is to accelerate Latine student success at Cornell University and beyond by expanding access to opportunity, knowledge, and resources.
The vision of the Latine Student Success Office is:
-
To develop the career and college readiness skills necessary to thrive at Cornell and beyond.
-
To empower students to excel at Cornell through academic planning and resource referrals.
-
To create a space of belonging and familiarity on campus alongside LSP.
-
To connect students with mentors, professors, and alumni, especially members of the Latine community, who will support their growth.
-
To advocate for policy changed to alleviate issues affecting the Latine community.
Collaborations that Make LSSO Possible
