Cohort Management Report (Prepared for the April Board Report)

Success Coach

The Academic Advising Center staff is now responsible for cohort management. Each member of the cohort is assigned a Success Coach. A Success Coach is professional advisor responsible for monitoring the persistence, retention and graduation rates for a cohort of students (first-time, full-time students). Through UNV 101, UNV 102, individual meetings, small groups, interventions, workshops, and seminars, Success Coaches will be responsible for ensuring that all cognitive, metacognitive, and social, financial, and academic affecting retention and success are factors addressed from freshman to senior year. Coaches will also

  1. Curriculum progression and registration information
  2. Academic, personal or social hurdles that may impede progression
  3. Institutional issues or concerns students may have
  4. Student success strategies related to academics, graduate school and career.
