The mission of the Center for Academic Achievement  is to support student academic retention and foster student academic development within the University's learning environment. The Center for Academic Achievement supports all FGC students in achieving their academic goals and assists them in becoming independent and confident learners. The Center for Academic Achievement strives to promote positive learning experiences for each student.

The Center for Academic Achievement accomplishes their objectives through two primary programs: the Academic Retention Program and the Student Instructional Support Program.  These programs support FGCU students by providing Supplemenal Instruction, Walk-in Tutor Labs, Individualized Academic Planning, Eagle's Wings Mentoring, Student Development Workshops, and Test Preparatory Workshops.
