About Academic Coaching
Academic coaching is an individualized service to equip you with the skills and resources needed to navigate the complexities of college life. Through one-on-one meetings with a coach, you receive personalized guidance that empowers you to set and pursue goals, fine-tune your academic skill set, and enhance your personal and emotional well-being. Academic coaches meet you where you are in your academic journey.
Free Sessions
Every University of Arizona student can have up to four free sessions of Professional Academic Coaching each semester including summer. You can purchase additional Academic Coaching sessions if you would like to meet with an Academic Coach more than four times in a semester. When you click the register button below, you will be taken to the form you need to complete to begin using your free sessions.
If you would like to meet with an Academic Coach beyond the four free sessions you are allotted each semester, you can discuss purchasing additional sessions with your Academic Coach and they will help you begin the purchasing process.
One additional session: $50
Eight-session bundle: $375
Twelve-session bundle: $575
We offer a limited number of scholarships to cover 100% of the one-time cost of a THINK TANK fee-based service. Scholarships are awarded based on multiple factors, including financial aid awards, referrals from university staff, individual circumstances, and the availability of funds. To apply for a scholarship, complete the online THINK TANK Scholarship Application.
Fee-Based Academic Coaching Policies
During the process of purchasing additional sessions, you will be asked to acknowledge that your Bursar’s account will be billed before your first session unless you have received a THINK TANK scholarship for the service. One additional one-hour session costs $50, an eight-session bundle costs $375, and a twelve-session bundle costs $575.
Students are limited to purchasing a number of additional sessions equivalent to one one-hour session per week from the time their registration is processed to the end of the semester.
If you purchase enough individual sessions to equal one of our established bundles, we will adjust the billing so that you pay the price of the bundle or the least expensive option.
The number of sessions purchased must be used by the end of the semester you purchased
them in.
You can have one appointment per week.
Cancellations should be made 24 hours in advance whenever possible. You must contact your Academic Coach to cancel an appointment.
Appointments that are not cancelled are considered a ‘no show.’
No shows cannot be rescheduled.
No refunds will be issued for unused appointments or no shows.
After three no shows, you must email your Academic Coach for future appointments. If you signed up for a bundle, your remaining appointments will be cancelled until you contact your Academic Coach to reschedule.
