Under the direction of the Director of Student Retention, the goal of the Student Success Coaches is to build rapport with students through communication and trust. The Success Coaches use an early alert program called CRM Advise to identify students that are at risk, as they enter the College. The markers used are socioeconomic factors, test scores, EFC numbers, and FTIC status. Success Coaches are responsible for communicating with these students, to ensure that they are aware of services, on campus activities, and social clubs. Using the CRM Advise program, faculty members are also able to send alerts to the Success Coaches when there is a student that is exhibiting at risk behavior(s) in the classroom. The factors that are used would be missing class, assignments, not prepared, and poor performance on assignments. When a professor creates an at-risk alert in Advise, the Success Coach will contact the students through text, email, and phone calls. The Coaches will attempt to build a rapport with the student in an effort to figure out where they can help. In many cases, the student will be referred to on-campus resources, offered time management tips, study strategies, and test taking strategies. The Success Coaches also act as academic advisors to all students and a Financial Aid advisor to students. Finally, the Success Coaches are responsible for all New Student Orientations (NSO). These orientations are offered as a face-to-face option and an online option. The NSO is the first step to improving the first-year experience for the students. The Success Coaches give the students an understanding of what it will take to be successful, while also providing the new students with a clear picture of what is expected of them.

The Tarrant To & Through Partnership aims to ensure more Tarrant County students have the training and skills they need to thrive in today’s workforce. The Tarrant To & Through (T3) Partnership commits to: 1) Supporting your student on their journey to graduate high school; 2) Helping them create a customized plan for life after high school; 3) Ensuring they complete a degree or credential to attain a meaningful career and living-wage job. When your student takes the T3 Pledge, we'll help them build a customized plan focused on life after high school called a "Postsecondary Success Plan". If eligible, your student will have access to a variety of supports such as: A T3 Last Dollar Scholarship covers any remaining tuition costs after all Pell grants and/or other federal, state, or institutional aid have been applied. In other words, last dollar scholarships cover the gap -- any last dollars needed to cover the student's tuition. The UTA and T3 partnership serves Fort Worth ISD students by offering personalized guidance and programming throughout high school into college, helping students achieve a world class degree. Become a T3 Scholar by completing the T3 Partnership Pledge by the T3 pledge deadline of your senior year of high school. T3 Scholars attending UTA who meet all eligibility requirements will also receive funding covering the cost of classes (tuition) that federal, state, or other institutional grants or scholarships do not.
