Student Success Club is an online service that pairs students with a caring, professional coach who monitors their progress, makes suggestions, praises them when warranted and holds them accountable for meeting their obligations academically and beyond.
What's more, students are part of a peer group, an enthusiastic community supporting each other publicly and staying in touch between meetings through an active online forum and, if they choose, in more ways too.
Here are some of the benefits students get from membership in Student Success Club:
-
skills for a lifetime (school, work and home life)
-
structure, accountability, motivation, recognition
-
results - no repeating classes - graduate on time
-
start earning money and getting work experience much sooner
-
choice of group affiliation (i.e. major, athletics, school, sorority/fraternity, special interest)
-
regularly scheduled webinars on timely topics with leading experts
-
affordability - coaching costs much less than delaying graduation
-
stay with your coach and your peer group even if you change schools or go on a study abroad term
-
graduation with clear goals and an action plan

(the American School Counselor Association)...
"Group counseling, which involves a number of students working on shared tasks and developing supportive relationships in a group setting, is an efficient, effective and positive way of dealing with students’ academic, career and personal/social/emotional developmental issues and situational concerns.
By allowing individuals to develop insights into themselves and others, group counseling makes it possible for more students to achieve healthier personal adjustment, cope with the stress of a rapidly changing and complex environment and learn to communicate and cooperate with others.
Research on group counseling suggests that this intervention is rather robust for a variety of academic, career and personal/social/emotional concerns."
