About GPS

Your guide to success

The Guide to Personal Success (GPS) program provides K-State students the chance to connect with more resources and opportunities for success. This program helps first-year students successfully navigate their transition to K-State and make the most of their experience.

Students will be matched with a GPS guide. Guides are faculty, staff, graduate students, and K-State alums in the Manhattan area who have knowledge of university resources and an interest in helping students, especially during their transition to campus. GPS guides are separate from your academic advisor.

All incoming, first-year students are eligible to participate.
