Academic Advisors - Coaches do not assist students with course selection, major declaration, monitoring degree requirements and academic progress, or withdrawal or leave of absence.
Counselors - While issues that impact student success are relevant coaching topics, coaches are primarily focused on motivation and skill building. This generally requires an emphasis on present and future goals rather than discussing challenges in the past. When necessary, coaches can make the appropriate referral to another resource on campus and assist students with appointment scheduling.
Tutors - If a student is facing challenges with course content, the coach can assist the student in connecting with tutor for academic assistance.
