USF Success and Wellness Coaches Are Able to Meet Remotely

As the semester wraps up, we want students to know that USF Success and Wellness Coaches are able to meet with students remotely!

Success and Wellness Coaching is available to all USF students on all campuses. Students can sign up by accessing the website and do not need a referral. However, faculty and staff may suggest and/or refer students who they think may benefit from Success and Wellness Coaching.

Coaches work with students to co-create a plan for success, focusing on motivation, accountable goal-setting, and holistic wellness. Coaches can also provide additional support for students who are facing academic, personal, or lifestyle challenges, but may not need psychological counseling services.

To refer a student to Success and Wellness Coaching, direct them to the website, here. For more information regarding USF Success and Wellness Coaching, please see the flyer here or contact successwellnesscoaching@usf.edu.


We invite you to share your COVID-19 stories in Communique. Let us know how you are coping with working remotely. Submit your photos and captions to cbcsmarketing@usf.edu

As always, you should refer to the official USF coronavirus webpage for the most up to date information. 

Stay safe
