Academic Coaching Philosophy
At the SLU School for Professional Studies, it is our goal to provide you with the tools you need to succeed. To help you achieve success and reach your academic goals, you will be assigned an academic coach for the entirety of your academic career. Your academic coach will help you understand your degree or certificate program, and assist you with course planning and selection. Your coach will also refer you to resources for academic and career success and identify academic policies and procedures as they relate to the Jesuit model of education.
