First-year student-athletes receive particular attention because we believe first-year success is crucial to graduation. To help make the transition easier, we concentrate a great deal of time on the creation of tools for success with new student experiences. Tools include:
- A customized academic support plan for each individual athlete.
- Compilation of each student-athlete’s calendar of due dates and scheduled tests. These dates will be monitored by the Athletic Academic Advisor.
- Attendance at the Coyote Athletic Study Center, which may be required. In addition to structured study time, counseling, supplemental study and tutoring will be provided.
