What is the purpose of this referral?
A referral to Study Lab should be made when a staff or faculty person (e.g., Academic Advisor, instructor) learns that a student in the Dietrich School or College of General Studies is struggling academically or expresses interest in improving their grades or study habits.
This referral should be used for Dietrich School and CGS students on the Pittsburgh campus only.
What action will be taken?
The student will receive an automated email after the referral is submitted with Study Lab contact information and links detailing Study Lab services. The email also encourages them to schedule an Academic Coaching appointment to talk about their semester. After one week, an academic coach will reach out with a more personalized email based on the comments provided in the referral.
When will the referral be closed?
The case will be closed after two attempts are made to contact the student via email or after the student has met with a member of Study Lab.
