Student support and advocacy
The Dean of Students office promotes our Community Standards through programs and services, administers the Student Conduct Code, advises the Student Conduct Committee and the Academic Integrity Board, and chairs both the Student Assistance and Care Team (ACT) and the Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT).
Career-building opportunities
Our faculty, alumni, and community partnerships open doors to real-world experiences. We foster connections with local and global businesses, Triple-A sports teams, teaching hospitals, performing arts venues, and various other options.
A focus on academic advising
Your student’s success is our highest priority. We provide a variety of resources to support our students, including academic advising, career coaching, and study skills development. Advising offices are located on each of our three campuses, and our Advising Network works to strengthen the partnership between students and academic advisors.
The campus experience
Our six residence halls provide a safe and comfortable home-away-from-home that’s close to community, classes, and campus resources. Our expansive residential campus in Gorham is the hub of undergraduate life. It’s closely connected via bus to our lively urban campus in Portland — Maine’s largest city, and the region’s economic and cultural capital.
