Student Coaching

Connecting Students to the Campus Community

Student Coaching is based on the simple idea that new students benefit from having a personal contact on campus.  Student Coaches and students are in contact (in person, on the phone, by email or by text) at least once each week to discuss how the semester is going and any concerns or issues that are interfering with the student's success in college.  Your Coach will be able to help you connect with services on campus and/or give advice on how to handle common problems that many college students experience.  Student Coaching is completely voluntary for both students and coaches.  However, you should know that students who complete the Student Coaching program have higher GPAs and tend to persist toward their academic goals at a higher rate than those who do not.
