Academic Success
Academic Success is comprised of academic coaching, learning assistance, and peer tutoring. The mission of Emory’s Academic Success is to provide resources, services, and workshops that support all undergraduate student achievements.
We do this by:
- Collaborating with faculty and university departments to coordinate a campus-wide network of academic support;
- Supporting students as they transition to college-level learning
- Cultivating the lifelong skill of learning how to learn
- Proactively identify and support academically at-risk students to increase retention and graduation.
- Creating opportunities for student leadership development in service to the Emory community.

Coaching
Academic Success offers coaching appointments with staff as well as peer coaches. Coaches work collaboratively with students to identify next steps, solutions, build academic skills, or resource opportunities.
Our staff coaches typically work with students who are referred from faculty or other departments and those who need acute on-going intervention. Our student Academic Coaches are undergraduate peers who are trained to work with students on both an individual level and in larger workshop settings around various broad academic skills related topics.
Topic areas that may be covered in individual sessions or workshops can include:
- communicating with faculty and TAs
- improving time management
- academic study skills
- goal setting and problem solving
- overcoming procrastination
- academic stress / test anxiety
- referrals to a wide variety of campus resources

Learning Assistance
Learning Assistants offer weekly collaborative group learning sessions to explore concepts, review class notes, discuss reading assignments, practice test-taking strategies, and review for quizzes and exams.
Learning Assistants are undergraduate who have successfully completed the course they are supporting. Each Learning Assistant is supported by the associated faculty member.
