| Abstract: | This study aimed to understand the barriers that two-year college students face that prevent graduation and the possible intervention program to assist them with overcoming these barriers. The perceptions of academic advisors working at a two-year college were gained in the areas of barriers related to environmental factors, social integration, and what characteristics provide a successful intervention program. The data was collected via a survey distributed through social media to academic advisors at two-year colleges. The academic advisors identified barriers related to environmental factors such as finances, employment, and family responsibilities. The barrier to social integration was time. The characteristics of a successful intervention plan include resources, mentors, and connections to the community. The findings indicate that two-year colleges need to identify the barriers specific to their campus to provide the necessary help on campus. There also needs to be more ways to have students engage socially on campus. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
