Tips for Holistic Success

• Do your best. On every assignment give your best effort. Do not skip assignments--those become zero’s and become harmful to your grade.
• Be proactive. Carefully read the syllabus and all announcements. Keep up with readings. Participate meaningfully and be honest and thoughtful in your assignments.
• Communicate. Life can get in the way sometimes. Instructors will do everything in their power to work with you and help you succeed. But they are unable to do so if you do not communicate with them.
• Prioritize Self Care. Your well-being means a lot! Be sure to step away from your academics and take time to nurture your holistic self. Do the things that bring you joy!
• Build a community. Success within your courses--as well as in life--is easier to achieve in a collective.
• Develop good time-management skills. Prioritize balancing your course work with your other responsibilities and obligations.
• Ask for help. If you are in need--of anything--be sure to reach out to instructors, your community, and/or those you trust.
