Academic Success Coaching

Academic Success Coaching is the art of coming along side a student and him or her to grow. It is an effective early alert strategy.  A good Academic Success Coach helps students to reach their potential, fulfill their academic goals and be transformed for the better. It also helps break the isolation that student often experience.  Academic Success Coaching helps students prioritize and track achievements. Coaches empower students who are ready and able to take responsibility for their lives to make the changes they want to make. Coaches provide the relationship, perspective, and accountability needed to reach their given and intended potential. Coaches evoke the personal discipline required to realize desired results in the life of a developing student leader.
Success Coaching helps students get the inside track and strengthen the connection between their life goals and their daily activities as a student. This helps to increase their motivation, reduces stress and allows them to focus more on their academic goals.
 
The Success Coach works with the student to identify and address potential obstacles to their success as a student. The coach helps the student address important problems that might prevent them from achieving their academic and life goals.

    •    Commitment to Graduate
    •    Managing Commitments
    •    Finances
    •    Student Experience
    •    Academics
    •    Personal Effectiveness
    •    Health & Well Being
“We found that coached students demonstrated a higher and more effective use of campus programs and services; had more productive interactions with faculty and staff; and were better prepared for classes and more likely to meet deadlines and follow campus procedures and policies.”  Gary Brahm, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at Chapman University
Academic Success Coaching has been the key to increasing student retention and graduation rates.  Contact us today to find out more about Academic Success Coaching.
