- Community building among individual cohorts as well as across cohorts that are concurrently enrolled on-campus.
- Individualized support assisting scholars with their transition to the US and campus life; navigating our institution; and making the most out of their Wisconsin Experience.
- Facilitating connections to campus resources, such as
- Learning support services, academic services (including major exploration and advising), and career services,

- Student organizations; leadership, public service, and research opportunities,
- Physical and mental health services, and
