Overview
The Student Retention Team is responsible for managing Wright State University’s early alert system, where faculty indicate the students who are potentially at risk throughout the semester. This early intervention allows the team to optimize resources across campus and provide the right interventions to support students through Wright State's coordinated care network in Student Affairs, Equity and Inclusion, and Student Success.
All students are assigned to one Success Coach based on the alphabet and the first letter of their last name.
Last Name Begins With | Success Coach |

A-F | Michelle Dixon michelle.dixon@wright.edu |
G-L | Carolyn Gunn Carolyn.gunn@wright.edu |
M-R | Catherine Hernandez catherine.hernandez@wright.edu |
S-Z | Genevieve Jomantas genevieve.jomantas@wright.edu |

Reach out to your Success Coach if you:
- Need additional support navigating academic and financial policies.
- Are facing external challenges that may be impacting your academic performance.
