Academic Success Coaching

The  Academic Success Coaching Program at the Tufts Student Accessibility and Academic Resource Center works with graduate and undergraduate students to develop executive functioning and social-emotional skills as they relate to academic work.  Our goal is to bridge the gap between a student’s lived experience and the rigor of a Tufts education. By considering the whole student and partnering with their campus-wide team, we can create success plans that honor an individual's identity, extracurricular interests, and academic goals.

Individual Coaching

All Graduate and Undergraduate students are invited to work one-on-one with an Academic Success Coach or a Graduate Academic Mentor to develop the following skillsets:

• Time Management & Planning 
• Test-taking and Test Anxiety 
• Reading and Note-taking Skills 
• Learning Preferences 
• Study Strategies 
• Procrastination and Motivation Strategies 
• Balancing Academic, Extracurricular, and Personal Life 
• Mindfulness and Wellbeing   
• …Don’t see the topic listed here?  Make an appointment to talk more!
