Student success is at the heart of everything we do at St. 爱德华的.
在你大一开始之前, you’ll be paired with a success coach, who will collaborate with you throughout your college experience. Success coaches help you figure out what classes to take and when, 参加什么学生组织啊, what leadership roles would be a good fit, 以及如何找到实习机会. 他们会了解你, so their recommendations and advice are tailored to getting you where you want to go post-graduation.
But success coaches do a lot more, too. These students shared with us how their success coaches made a big difference as they navigated their first semester.
Success coaches build your confidence.

It gives students an understanding of the university that they call home and provides them with guidance.”
