What is a success coach?

A dedicated Student Success Programs staff member who will meet with you individually to help with the following:

• Building academic success skills
• Navigating the college environment
• Providing accountability to help you stay on track for success
• Connecting you with on-campus and community resources to meet your specific needs

A success coach is different than an advisor! An advisor will help you understand topics such as building a class schedule, class registration, degree requirements, the academic catalog, and other critical academic policies to help you stay on track as you progress toward your degree.

How can a success coach support me?

• Organization and planning
• Time management
• Goal setting
• Connecting with on-campus and community resources
• Balancing many commitments
• Communicating with professors
• Note-taking and test-taking strategies
• Study skills and techniques
• Navigating barriers to your success

How often will I meet with a success coach?

Depending on what you need, it could be a one-time meeting or on-going, consistent meetings.
