Located in the McKee Library, the Academic Resource Center’s (ARC) mission is to support faculty by providing services to empower students with reaching their academic and personal goals within a community-based environment.

ARC fulfills its mission by:

• Facilitating OPSU’s “Progress Through Knowledge” mission statement
• Building support systems to assist students through their university experience such as peer mentoring, accountability groups, group advising, counseling, and disability services
• Partnering with departments across campus to maximize resources
• Engaging with employers to build career paths for students
• Administering the Pearson VUE Testing Center, Accuplacer, National and Residual ACT Exams, Accommodations Testing, and CLEP Exams
