Peer Success Leaders
Shepherd students have the opportunity to meet one-to-one throughout the semester with upper-level students known as Peer Success Leaders (PSL). These student leaders can share their personal experiences, challenges, and tips they’ve learned during their time at Shepherd. These meetings are to make sure you are comfortable and acclimated to the campus environment. However, Peer Success Leaders are not tutors or counselors.
Students can schedule with a PSL at any point during their academic career at Shepherd. Unlike success coaches, PSLs can meet students at different campus locations as well as times outside typical office hours! Additionally, PSLs can be found within the Student Success Center during their office hours throughout the week.
