Academic Success Coaching

Academic Success Coaches (professional and peer) will guide you toward academic success through holistic and individualized support. They will help you with goal setting, academic accountability, and self-efficacy.

We are here to help! You will start by working with a peer Academic Success Coach who will assist you with building the academic skills that may need some bolstering. After you have met with a peer Academic Success Coach, should you need further assistance, you can request an appointment with a professional Academic Success Coach.

A peer Academic Success Coach is a student cross-trained in various methods and styles to best assist you with building academic skills to help you succeed in the present and future. Whether you want to learn some new study strategies, work on your time management skills, create healthy goals, or just have an accountability buddy to help you keep on track a peer coach is here to help!

In addition, peer Academic Success coaches also assist with CAE outreach. A student may receive a phone call or email from a peer coach for various reasons from contacting them if they are struggling in a class and have received an academic alert, having a low midterm grade, or having not registered for next semester classes. These calls are to ensure that students know of all of the resources available to them.
