The Zuber-Slocum Academic Success Program provides students with the tools they need to achieve academic success. Meet with a Peer Academic Coach or professional staff to discover research-based learning strategies and find techniques that work best for you. Make an appointment for an individualized experience or attend academic skills workshops, which can be found on the campus calendar.

Working with a coach can help you:

  • discover research-based strategies
  • adopt new academic skills
  • become more confident and motivated
  • develop self-awareness of your strengths, weaknesses, and needs
