This report compiles testimonies and interviews with AASAP students, centering their voices to highlight reflections on AASAP advising and programming. The report will also provide figures on AASAP’s key initiatives, highlighting collaborations with GLAS and AANAPISI, and UIC campus partners. It will conclude with AASAP Director Dr. Viraj Patel’s vision for AASAP 2025-26, bolstering AASAP’s mission to support student success, retention, persistence and graduation, in line with the Chancellor’s priorities.
