Student Success Specialists
Your Student Success Specialist is focused on supporting your success both in and out of the classroom. Your Success Specialist does not replace your academic advisor – your advisor is still here to help you with degree planning and course selection. Instead, your Specialist's role is complementary to the advising process and is focused on helping you get connected to the resources at Texas Tech to help you be academically, professionally, and personally successful.
Whether you need assistance with time management, aren't sure who to reach out to about finding mental heath resources, are struggling with finances, are wondering how to get involved on campus, or just need someone to talk with about the stresses of college life, your Specialist is here to listen and to connect you with the individuals and offices on campus who can provide whatever help you need.
Your Success Specialist is embedded in and works directly with your academic college or unit to provide specialized retention outreach and support services. You can find your assigned Specialist below as well as on your Success Team on Raider Success Hub. Don't hesistate to reach out to them today!
