Success Coaching

Success Coaching at West Chester University

What is Success Coaching?

Success Coaching provides individualized support to guide students toward academic and personal success at WCU. Unlike tutoring, which fosters content knowledge, success coaching provides practical skills and strategies for students to achieve their academic goals.

What's involved?

Each student is paired with a success coach to meet with regularly or as needed. Success Coaches are graduate level students who have obtained a bachelors degree and are trained to offer personalized support. Success coaching topics include: time management, test preparation, note taking, textbook reading, college adjustment & more.
