Student Success
College is a big transition — academically, socially, and personally. The Office of Student Success is here to make sure that transition works in your favor, with the tools, tutoring, and support you need to thrive at GCU, not just get by.
The Office of Student Success
The Office of Student Success takes a holistic approach to helping you finish your degree — academically and personally. That includes:
- General academic support, whatever you’re working through
- Help navigating GCU’s offices, policies, and procedures — course registration, academic placements, and using Self-Service for courses, financial aid, and student accounts
- Help planning your courses toward degree completion, working alongside your faculty advisor
- Guidance on how to study, understand your own learning style, manage your time, and read a syllabus
- Support through emergencies and hardships via the GCU Cares program and the Angel Fund
- Help adjusting to college life and the transition to GCU
The Learning Connection (TLC)
The Learning Connection is GCU's academic support hub — offering free tutoring, study skills coaching, and time-management strategies to help you get the most out of your classes.
Peer Tutoring & Supplemental Instruction: Free, one-on-one and group tutoring from fellow GCU students who've already succeeded in the courses you're taking, open to all undergraduates. Whether you need help understanding a tough concept or want to review before an exam, our peer tutors are ready to help.
