Dear UTSA Graduate Student,

Our program assists UTSA graduate students in achieving academic success. We work with graduate students at all levels, including beginning students, doctoral students, and those working on their thesis or dissertation.

We provide assistance in four areas: writing, research, professional, and academic excellence. We aim to develop well-rounded graduate students who are successful in their program, by providing workshops, resources, in-depth programs, and academic coaching.

Academic Coaching
Academic coaching is the one-on-one process of helping each student identify their study strengths and then building an effective and flexible set of study skills. This can be peer-to-peer or with a staff person. Please contact the TRC front desk for assistance with setting an appointment (210-458-4694.)
