College Life Coaches are dedicated to helping students get the most out of their college experience. Pre-selected students will receive one-on-one attention twice per month, for the academic year, from a coach who is committed to student development and success. Coaches work closely with academic advisors and other campus partners to support students in achieving their personal, academic, and professional goals. Our College Life Coaches work with students in the following areas in order to support them in maximizing their college experience:

• Improving effectiveness in and out of the classroom
• Connecting students to the campus community
• Building life and leadership skills
• Creating balance and managing stress
• Boosting self-confidence and developing goals for the future

Our mission is to provide a network of professional academic advisors and college life coaches who support students as they establish and realize their personal, academic, and career goals at Florida State University. The primary focus of our program is to assist and guide students so they are retained at the University from time of enrollment through to graduation. With expertise on university policies, resources and opportunities, and extensive training in effective guidance, our Advising First professionals promote students' progress and growth throughout their academic careers.
