What is Graduate Academic Coaching?

Graduate Academic Coaching is a collaborative process with the ultimate goal of developing a personalized plan for achieving academic success in graduate school. A Graduate Academic Coach will listen to your needs and concerns and work closely with you to develop academic goals and suggest tools, resources, and strategies to assist in reaching those goals. Topics discussed during academic coaching are based on your needs, though common topics we encounter are balancing work, family, and school, managing big projects like a thesis/dissertation, and effective reading strategies for graduate level material.
