Academic coaching is available for all VCU student-athletes. One-on-one coaching sessions for student-athletes who wish to make improvements to reach their academic goals.

The Academic Coach can assist you with:

• Developing strong study skills
• Implementing effective learning strategies based on subject/course
• Developing and improving time management skills
• Setting and achieving short-term and long-term academic goals
• Learning appropriate testing strategies based on subject/course
• Identifying and removing the barriers that prevent you from being successful
• Identifying academic resources available through the VCU.

Academic Coaching is available for student-athletes of all academic abilities, and sessions are tailored to meet the individual needs of each student. Academic Coaches often meet with students on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to assist throughout the semester.

Similarly to how a coach works with a naturally talented athlete to reach their fullest potential on the court or field, academic coaches help students to reach their fullest academic potential.
