Student Success and Support
Hard work AND helpful support are the keys to success at KWU.
Support at Every Step
Take advantage of the support systems in place to help you succeed at KWU, systems that are designed to integrate into campus life. They’re created to be where you are, not in an ivory tower. From the student success coaches provided, to the spiritual and practical support of program chaplains, to the developmental athletic program, supporting every Coyote through graduation is the reason we’re here.
That support begins in the first year experience, when Coyotes are provided with student coaching by the aforementioned student success coaches. A dedicated hour twice a week provides time for academic development, whether through the dedicated student success course or visiting with faculty, and peer and mentor tutoring helps embed many of the lessons learned. Support continues throughout the KWU experience, with faculty advising in the student’s chosen major, the skills imparted by coaches and activity directors and the availability of team (and activity) chaplains, who are embedded in programs to insure availability to students. All of this helps guide student success throughout their time at KWU, and helps propel them through challenges to get them to the graduation stage.
