A Success Coach is a professional staff member who assists students with any academic concerns and connects them with helpful campus resources. Success coaches guide incoming first year students in creating their first semester schedule, serve as a mentor for students who are on academic probation as part of their academic recovery plan, address student concerns submitted by faculty/staff, and assist with time management/study skills. Students have been assigned success coaches based upon engagement in particular programs/involvement on campus or by college/school. If students are not in one of the specialized engagement groups, students are assigned by college/school.
