Need a Success Coach?
Free Success Coaching available for All SSU Students
You do not have to be a poor performing student to need coaching. Everyone needs extra help from time-to-time.
Success Coach services are free and available to all currently registered students, including College Credit Plus students.
Your Success Coach will contact you through your Shawnee MyMail. They may also call or text you based on your preference.
Please have available your class syllabi the first meeting with your Success Coach so they can make a copy of each syllabus. Also bring any additional materials that will aid in the Success Coaching session, such as, assignment outlines provided by your instructor. It will also be helpful to have access to blackboard if meeting with your coach remotely.
