Success Coaches offer individualized academic support to all UNK undergraduate students to improve their college experience! The Loper Success Hub offers both peer student success coaching and professional student success coaching.
Success Coaching will help you develop valuable college life skills. Our aim is to help you feel more confident in yourself and your abilities and help you explore the many resources available at UNK. Your coach will help you identify and achieve your goals through continuous one-on-one support.
Your peer coach will support you, challenge you, and hold you accountable through weekly coaching sessions. Topics are customized to meet your specific needs and may include goal setting, time management, study skills & strategies, motivation & mindset coaching, stress management, and general guidance for better self-care practices. Success Coaching is a holistic approach toward achieving balanced and healthy life goals for successful outcomes.
