College can feel overwhelming, even when things are going well.
Whether you're trying to organize your assignments, recover from a tough exam, create a study plan, or simply figure out your next steps, our Peer Success Coaches can help.
Peer Success Coaches (PSCs) are trained Penn State students who understand the realities of balancing classes, responsibilities, and campus life. They won't tell you what to do or judge your choices. Instead, they'll help you create a plan, stay accountable to your goals, and find strategies that work for you.
How to Connect with a Peer Coach
Whether you need help making a plan, building a new habit, or staying on track, there are several ways to get started with a Peer Success Coach.

Students commonly meet with a PSC to:

- Build a study plan for an upcoming exam
- Manage procrastination
- Break down overwhelming assignments
- Adjust to college life
- Balance academics, work, and involvement

Not sure what you need? That's okay, too. Many students start with a conversation and work with their coach to identify their next steps.
