Pathways to Success at Tech

Advisors know their major’s curriculum, and are the experts to help students navigate their academic path at Tech. Your academic advisor can help you plan to make the most of your college experience and is also your resource for discussions about any academic difficulties or challenges you encounter.

Academic Coaching provides students with the chance to work individually with professional staff members to enhance their academic skills, gain confidence, discover motivation, and improve performance. Students usually schedule a 45-60 minute meeting every two weeks or once a month, depending on their individual need. Academic Coaching is available year round so schedule your appointment now.
