Overview
We want every student to succeed. That’s why we coordinate student care across the university with offices including Academic Advising, Student Affairs, Culture and Identity Centers, and Student Advocacy and Wellness. It’s also why we reach out to faculty throughout the semester, offering the opportunity to alert us to students who might benefit from early intervention or connection with campus and community resources.
Success Coach Assignments
All students are assigned to one Success Coach based on the alphabet and the first letter of their last name.

| G-O | Carolyn Gunn Carolyn.gunn@wright.edu |
| P-Z | Megan Conley megan.conley@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.
- Need extra assistance in connecting with campus resources.
