In this episode, we explore how the University of Indianapolis is transforming the academic trajectory of students facing academic dismissal through an innovative success course grounded in Process Education. Rather than focusing solely on study skills, the course helps students develop essential learning strategies, build resilience, embrace a growth mindset, and take ownership of their academic journey. The conversation highlights how intensive reflection, teamwork, and intentional skill development have led to significant improvements in retention and graduation, offering a powerful model for helping students overcome setbacks and achieve long-term success.
