Success Coaching
Success coaching is designed to empower neurodiverse students in their transition to college, in the development of organization, social support, time management, and study habits. Success Coaching is not an accommodation, but a support service offered to our students registered with Accessibility Services. Participation in coaching is completely optional.
More about Success Coaching
Success Coaching at Â鶹ֱ²¥ University is an individualized, collaborative, and dynamic process of addressing students’ specific needs and personal goals. Coaching focuses on a student’s strengths and identifies strategies to help students overcome obstacles, be strong self-advocates, and build self-determination. Together, a student and coach proactively work towards students successfully carrying out their daily life activities at college in a goal-oriented way.

- Offer academic support skills and core self-management strategies.
- Provide support and feedback while students use these skills and strategies in college.
- Give non-judgmental accountability as students work to meet their goals.
- Connect students to other relevant campus resources.
Students:
- Partner with their coach to determine what works and what doesn't.
- Have autonomy in decision-making and topics of coaching discussions.
- Become an expert in how they learn, manage their time, and fully participate in college.
