Community college students vary greatly in their level of academic preparedness. Federal data indicates that 68 percent of community college students need to take at least one developmental education course (Jaggars & Stacey, 2014). Community colleges can support students' success by providing academic supports such as tutoring services for specific courses and assignments and guidance on study skills and time management. In addition, some student with disabilities may need academic accommodations and assistive technology. This info brief examines supports community colleges can provide students. It also highlights what some community colleges are currently doing and provides resources for more information.
