The Student Success Center (SSC)

The Student Success Center (SSC) is designed to enrich learning opportunities through resources available to students at a distance or on campus. Modeled on best practices for excellence in teaching and learning, the SSC provides students with opportunities to extend and to deepen their classroom learning experiences by participating in academic advising, tutoring through TutorMe - a virtual tutoring platform, course specific tutors via Zoom or on campus, basic skill strengthening, career counseling, and/or short-term personal counseling to help direct your next steps. The SSC strives to be a warm and welcoming community of learners dedicated to fostering student growth and success. Students are not assigned a specific advisor. Students requesting a meeting with an advisor are encouraged to email StudentSuccess@laboure.edu to set up a meeting with the Advisor on Duty that day. Virtual and walk-in appointments are available daily during normal business hours; however, students are encouraged to make an appointment by calling 617-322-3579 or emailing StudentSuccess@laboure.edu in advance. 

Normal business hours for the Student Success Center are: 

  • Monday - Thursday: 8:30 am to 7:00 pm
  • Friday: 8:30 am to 5:00 pm 

You can reach the SSC at 617-322-3579 or StudentSuccess@laboure.edu.

In collaboration with the Student Success Center and other related student support areas within the college, the Assistant Director of Academic Support is dedicated to supporting the academic success of all students at the college. Students are encouraged to attend the weekly student success workshops available on-ground and virtually. Workshops offered include professional nursing reviews, testing strategies, making concept maps, study techniques, reading effectiveness, time management, and more. The schedule of workshops is published in the weekly student newsletter, in the SSC section of the Student tab on my.laboure.edu, and available on campus in the Student Success Center. The Assistant Director of Academic Support also works with students to develop academic plans to support success for those retaking a course, returning to the college, or by request, as well as leads in the instruction of the developmental course DSN 1010 and DSN 1015: Developmental Skills for Nursing.
