Greetings and Welcome to the Hive! Ms. Jarso Jallah Saygbe - Associate Vice President We are excited to extend a warm welcome to our Hornet family, most especially our newest parents and families. The OSS staff and I are looking forward to another exciting year of engagement and learning with our students and parents at Delaware State University (DSU). College is a period of transition, not only for your student but also for you and other members of your family. Moreover, college can be an exciting time and, sometimes, a difficult time. Therefore, partnering with parents is critically important to support our students in attaining their goals. You can expect to receive periodic newsletters throughout the academic year to keep you up to date on the happenings in the Office of Student Success. Please help us by communicating with us via Thrive@desu.edu. A good way of staying up to date on OSS information is to visit our website at www.desu.edu/Academics/Student-Success. You can find several sources of information that will keep you informed on all things student success. We will strive to provide the most up-to-date information possible to help you navigate the campus community and find access to resources. We are thrilled to begin the 2022-2023 school year at DSU. If at any time during the school year you need to contact me, please feel free to call 302-857-6072 or email JSaygbe@desu.edu. Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success! – Henry Ford Welcome to a new academic year!!!! Sincerely, Ms. Jarso Jallah Saygbe
