Hello!
On behalf of Student Success and our many campus partners: Welcome to the 2022-2023 academic year!
This year will present many opportunities for you to define and pursue success. One of the best ways to get there is making sure you have helpful tools, information, and connections. Our goal in creating this digital planner is to give you all three. Each month, you'll find new articles about life as a UMass student, strategies for keeping yourself organized and in-control of your time, and ways to connect with people who will support you on campus. While this planner is not a comprehensive guide to all that UMass has to offer, we hope serves as a boost on your way to success.
Enjoy exploring, and don't forget to come back for new content each month!
Student Success Study Skills
Each month, we'll provide a short video (courtesy of the Learning Resource Center) that'll provide tangible direction for building your study skills. All videos are under three minutes long and contain helpful insights. If have questions or want to know more about any of the content in the videos, send us a note and we'll get back to you with more information. Click the image below to see September's video!
