Student Success

Who are we?

Student success is our priority. Our CEHD student success advisors and graduate assistants works with you to ensure you have what you need to reach your full potential. Our student success advisor is available to meet with you to set goals and get on track. You can meet with the advisor to set personal and academic goals, address factors impacting academic performance, get connected to campus and community resources, or receive help navigating emergency situations, hardships, account holds, or finances. Our success advisor can also offer resources for study and test-taking strategies, time management, self-care, and motivation for students who request assistance.

Who can utilize our services? All CEHD undergraduate students.

Understand your strengths. Talk to your student success advisor about your strengths results and receive coaching on how to best utilize them in every area of your life. 

Don’t know your CliftonStrengths? That’s ok! While some students learn their Clifton Strengths in FYE 2100, others do not. Your student success advisor can provide you with an access code and get you going on your Strengths journey.

This one credit-hour course focuses on the development of strategies for overcoming barriers to academic and personal success. Students will explore academic skills and non-cognitive barriers, connect with their strengths to develop an internal motivation to sustain academic success, and either choose or affirm a career focus through career assessment and exploration of campus and community resources.
