Meet our Coaches

SELF Student Success Coaches are a dedicated team of individuals that provide support, encouragement, accountability and thought partnership to eligible SELF Loan borrowers. Each of our coaches has an educational and professional background in providing support services which provides borrowers a wealth of knowledge and expertise as they embark on their college journey.

We asked students what they found most helpful about meeting with their Success Coach:

“Meeting with a Coach has allowed me to set time apart from the hustle and bustle of college to figure out what I need to do for myself, and to have someone qualified to help with that.”

“My Coach has supported me, listened to me, and also helped me challenge myself to get out of my comfort zone.”
