Transitions Program

Students work with the Transitions Coordinator to register for the TAP program. Registration requests and questions regarding the TAP program can be directed to transitions@webster.edu.

Once registered, program participants receive a confirmation email and a packet detailing necessary information about the program, including what to bring and when to move in.

TAP students will:

• Gain confidence for the Fall semester at Webster University and become familiar with campus resources and how to access them.
• Participate in collaborative workshops that address study skills, financial literacy and effective communication strategies for college students.
• Build a network of friends by meeting other students who are new to Webster.
• Learn from returning students and their experiences.
• Meet faculty and staff who will support their transition to college and through their academic journey at Webster University.
• Attend one-on-one writing coaching sessions to learn academic writing strategies.
• Understand how a college course is structured and the expectations of university-level coursework.
• Earn a total of three credit hours for completing PSYC 1000: Learning Strategies.
  • PSYC 1000 provides students with a structure for discovering and developing the learning strategies necessary for becoming self-directed learners. The course content is focused on developing new ways of analyzing, integrating, and applying learning strategies to various learning situations and developing modes of communication and critical thinking that encourage lifelong learning.
