Tips for Success

In Fall 2024, the Dean of Students Office launched “Tips for Success,” an opt-in message board within the Seton Hall mobile app to provide students with tips to support their mental health, resiliency, and success.

According to Merriam-Webster, resilience is the ability to recover from or adjust to misfortune or change. This initiative is in response to the department's goal of equipping students with the strategies needed to navigate the stresses and adversities of college life. The goal of Tips for Success is to provide students with additional resilience resources and support. By providing skill building around resilience, the initiative aims to promote students thriving at Seton Hall and beyond.

Early feedback from students has been overwhelmingly positive. Many have reported feeling the tips were helpful. When asked about the weekly messages, a student responded “They were inspirational. Thank you.”

Examples of  Tips for Success:

• Practice Self-awareness
• Set realistic goals
• Practice stress management
• Develop problem-solving skills
