Academic Success Coaching will provide students with proactive, personalized support to address challenges and build the skills necessary for their success. Housed in the Office of Academic Success Initiatives, the program is designed to support first-year students in their transition from high school to college by helping them adjust to the academic, social and personal differences between those experiences. First-year students will be assigned to a full-time staff coach to help them set goals, identify potential barriers, build skills and engage campus resources. Coaching meetings can be initiated through self-selection, invitation, response to an early alert or a Midterm Progress Report and proactive outreach.

Peer Wellness Coaching will provide students with the opportunity to assess their current wellness status, examine improvement opportunities, and set goals. Housed in Wellness Services, the program is open to all students but is specifically designed to support second-year students as they continue their college journey. Students will work with trained peer coaches to provide them with an accountability partner to address barriers they are encountering and build the skills necessary to meet their individualized wellness goals. Peer coaches will be prepared to refer students to campus resources, including counseling, as needed.

Resilience Reset: Resilience Reset is a 90-minute workshop designed to teach students useful skills for addressing common concerns, such as anxious feelings, stress and loneliness.

It is designed to be interactive and provide students with an opportunity for reflection, journaling and practicing the skills learned in the workshop.

Academic Skills Workshops: Academic Skills Workshops will help students build skills critical to their academic success.

The Community of Care Toolkit is designed for faculty and staff as a one-stop resource to support student emotional well-being.
