Student Success Specialists

Personalized Support Tailored to You

Your Student Success Specialist is dedicated to helping you succeed both inside and outside the classroom. While your academic advisor assists with course planning, your Specialist focuses on:

• Success Strategies: Time management, study skills, and goal setting.
• Resource Connections: Linking you to mental health services, financial aid, and more.
• Campus Involvement: Helping you find organizations and events that match your interests.
