Do you need help getting back on track?

At SHSU, we understand that achieving academic success and returning to good academic standing can be challenging, but our personalized academic recovery coaching service is here to help you every step of the way. Our experienced coaches will work with you to create a tailored plan that includes accountability, time management, organization, self-advocacy building, self-care and more!

Recovery coaching is about empowering you to take control of your academic journey. Our coaches will help you identify your academic goals, work through challenges, and utilize the resources available to you. By partnering with a coach, you'll gain the skills and confidence needed to achieve success both in and out of the classroom.

Probation

Students on first-time academic probation, take UNIV 2001, a monitored, self-guided, online course designed to help you regain good academic standing. Through the course, you'll learn academic recovery strategies and methods related to university policies, academic and campus resources, communication techniques, wellness, and goal setting.

Suspension

Students on first-time academic suspension, participate in UNIV 3001, a program designed to guide you back to good academic standing. In the program, you'll work with an academic recovery coach to co-construct an academic recovery plan, form connections with course instructors to assist in reaching goals, and identify and utilize campus resources to improve your GPA.
