Coaching & Academic Success Programs

Struggling with academics or looking to enhance your study habits?  We’re here to help.

Whether you’re transitioning from high school, transferring from another college, or facing academic challenges, Suffolk University’s Center for Learning and Academic Success (CLAS) offers personalized academic coaching to help you succeed.

Our one-on-one coaching sessions focus on strengthening time management, study strategies, organization, and overall academic performance. We also support students who have adjusted to Suffolk but want continued accountability, improved study habits, and reduced stress.

Academic coaches help connect you with vital campus resources, including Disability Services, Suffolk Cares, Academic Advising, faculty, and administrators. In addition, our coaches teach First-Year Experience courses and specialized academic success seminars.

CLAS coaches are professionally trained and certified to support students in achieving their academic goals.

  • Our coaches are CTEDU Associate Certified Academic Life Coaches, a credential grounded in positive psychology and student-centered support.
  • Many have also earned or are actively pursuing their Associate Certified Coach (ACC) credential through the International Coaching Federation (ICF) - the global standard for coaching excellence and ethics.

You can trust that our coaches bring both expertise and empathy to every session. You don’t have to navigate college alone!
