Eastern Michigan University Student-Athlete Support Services Vision Statement
The primary aim of Student-Athlete Support Services (SASS) is to help student-athletes experience success in their dual role as student and athlete.

Specific objectives of SASS include: assisting student-athletes in making a successful transition to college; developing and implementing academic plans; providing student-athletes with the information and means to assume full responsibility for their education; and enabling student-athletes to graduate within five years of initial enrollment.
The support services include programs that focus on the special needs of student-athletes, communication of Department of Athletics and university policies, procedures and timelines, academic monitoring, priority registration, communication of University, CAA, MAC and NCAA regulations and rules, and educational tools and resources.
