Open students' eyes to the key skills and attitudes for surviving and thriving in college. The new College Survival and Success Scale measures a student's ability to get the most from postsecondary education and training and use it to build a successful future. The CSSS covers five scales important for doing well in college, according to research: 1) Commitment to education; 2) Self- and resource-management skills; 3) Interpersonal and social skills; 4) Academic success skills; and 5) Career planning skills.

Students rate themselves on 60 items and then learn whether they possess the skills, habits, motivations, and attitudes needed to survive and succeed in college. In addition, the CSSS includes helpful suggestions for improving college survival and success, plus writing space for "My Success Plan." Self-scoring and self-interpreting, the CSSS has been tested on students and is backed by solid research and validity. It features five easy steps and a friendly writing style and takes just 20 minutes to complete.

The CSSS makes a great discussion tool and helps students to learn what college will be like, to understand expectations in college, and to prepare for the college experience and the college environment. Ideal for various purposes in many programs and settings: college readiness, college preparedness, freshmen orientation, freshmen seminar courses, middle schools, high schools, community colleges, training programs, technical schools, admissions counseling, academic counseling, career counseling, youth programs, college recruitment, improving college persistence and retention rates, military transition to college, adults returning to college, and dropout prevention.
