College Success Programs

Tutoring & College Success supports students in their educational endeavors by providing academic and personal success strategies through structured courses, workshops/presentations, and individual advising. 

The University of Idaho believes that success involves more than mastery of academic content. True success requires the ability to:

• set realistic, measureable goals
• manage time & finances
• think critically
• study effectively
• maintain physical & emotional health
• balance social, family, and academic responsibilities
• build a strong network of social & professional contacts

TCS is here to provide strategies for success in these and many other aspects of college life.
