, a unit of the Office of Undergraduate Studies,
assists the University of Delaware with the retention of students

and activities. In many cases, the AEC coordinates its efforts
with other University offices to insure a comprehensive set
of services.
AEC Intake Form
Serious students
at the University of Delaware know that the AEC can help everyone.
All a student needs to do is to ask for assistance! The AEC
houses undergraduate and pre-college programs, services, and
activities—all with the goal of increasing academic
success. Of particular interest to this unit is the retention
of low-income/first-generation college students, university
freshmen, undergraduate and graduate students with diagnosed
learning disabilities and ADHD, and selected underrepresented
scholars; however, other matriculated students are encouraged
to come for assistance. In addition, students who consider
themselves stronger academically will find support services
to maximize their academic experience and better prepare them
for graduate school. Successful students are encouraged to
take on leadership roles within the AEC, as tutors and summer
program assistants.
The AEC offers activities that provide undergraduate students
with extensive academic assistance through individual and
group tutoring, group study sessions, mentoring, academic
success and study skills workshops, test accommodations for
eligible students with diagnosed learning disabilities and
ADHD, and general assistance and referral throughout the year.
These programs and activities are designed to help students
enhance their academic performance while pursuing their degree
programs.

and enroll in postsecondary programs. To assist eligible students
to remain in school and gain admission to college, the University
houses two federally funded programs that combine academics
with systematic academic support, general counseling and cultural
enrichment experiences through summer residential programs
and academic year experiences.
