Academic Success Workshops

Helping Student Succeed

From academic strategies to test anxieties, the Creighton Student Success has a workshop to help you success.

Schedule a workshop for your student organization, RSP group, or class! View the available workshops below.

Test Preparation

This workshop focuses on test-preparation and study skills. Some students are just now learning how to study, as this may be the first time they have needed to put in time outside of class to achieve the same level of success they experienced in high school. We review best practices to gear up for test time.

Time Management

Upon arrival to Creighton, students experience an exciting (and scary) new freedom: time. In this workshop, we discuss best practices for setting and maintaining goals, holding oneself accountable, avoiding time-wasters, and finding the right balance of fun, work, and sleep! Students will walk away with an individualized study plan that they can (and hopefully will) put to use right away.
