Scotty Accountability Sessions

Are you struggling with motivation and staying on task? Tired of studying alone and getting distracted or off track?

Studying and working on homework can be really isolating. For some students, working alone leads to reduced motivation, productivity, and increased procrastination. Join our Scotty Accountability Sessions to share space with other students in order to help each other stay on track.

Scotty Accountability Sessions offer ongoing support to all CMU students.

How does it work?

Consistent Dedicated Work Time: Scotty Accountability Sessions take place multiple times a week in various locations around campus. Students can stop by and work alongside each other in a quiet and supportive environment.

Academic Coach Support: Sessions are led by our Academic Coaches who are there to support productive study habits and skills. Coaches can help you with scheduling, time management, study skills, and other academic skills.

Flexibility: Students can come and go as they please and are welcome to attend any of the sessions on campus.
