Athletic Academic Services
The Athletic Academic Services Program consists of a weekly individual half-hour academic counseling appointment with an athletic academic advisor, evening study halls, and additional subject-specific tutoring appointments as needed. The focus of the academic counseling and coaching appointments is twofold.
First, they focus on helping incoming freshman student-athletes with transitional issues like planning and organization. Organization and planning are particularly important for all student-athletes because of team travel commitments and the unique time demands of being a student-athlete.
Second, these weekly appointments also function as an early warning system. By getting regular weekly feedback from the student-athlete, his or her advisor can quickly identify and address academic problems. If an issue arises, the advisor can place the student-athlete in subject-specific tutoring and/or communicate with the student-athlete’s coaches to address it immediately. During study halls, students can access a range of tutoring services in the Student Success Center.
