In Southwest Texas Junior College's 15/30/40+ Credit Hours Interventions, Success Coaches meet with students whom are seeking an Associate of Arts or Associate of Science when they meet key credit milestones. Success Coaches meet with each student to monitor student progress and plan future courses to keep students on track using student planning at each marker of 15/30/40+. Transfer pathways are also part of student planning. 15/30/40+ are markers for retention and completion. Once a student reaches the 40+ credit mark, the college's transfer team contacts each student to discuss graduation and transfer

Under the direction of the Director of Student Retention, the goal of …
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.

TexConnect links students to resources both on and off campus through case management and student outreach. TexConnect connects Tarleton students with an array of resources, including on-campus pantries. With the Purple Pantries, small-scale student grants, and strategic partnerships students who experience gaps in resources may continue their education. Transportation challenges, food or shelter instability, clothing or academic materials, licensure costs, or many other hurdles can interrupt students’ lives and educational journeys. TexConnect collaboratively joins resources to address those student needs in order for students to focus on their education. By using data from student case management, we can better understand our students and their needs. Data facilitates intentional systemic changes that help retain and graduate our students.
