Course Description

Academic Recovery Coaching. YSU 1520: Academic Recovery Coaching is an individual academic coaching tutorial specifically for students on academic warning and/or academic probation. Individually allows coaches to understand each student’s academic journey, habits, strengths, the unique circumstances that led to poor performance, and any persisting barriers or challenges when determining and implementing a recovery strategy. Coaches and students will determine strategies, which may include any combination of tutoring, time management, study strategy and test preparation coaching, mental health counseling, and/or financial counseling, and may or may not guide students to talk to their academic advisor about repeating classes, changing their major and petitioning for academic reassessment, etc. 0 s.h.
