Success Coaching is a coaching program that supports second-year or sophomore students in their continued success at DePaul.
The second year is a year of figuring out yourself, the world, and your future. Your coach is here to assist in every step.

Meet the Coaches
Margaret Mullen My name is Maggie Mullen, and I am a Student Success Coach! My coaching specialization is Academic Skills, but I also have experience with Time Management. I enjoy being a success coach because having peer support has been a defining aspect of my own DePaul experience. I love connecting with students and letting them know that they have someone in their corner; to help them achieve their goals and encourage them to strive for personal greatness.
Patrick Brady Hello! My name is Patrick, and I am a Student Success Coach. I wanted to become a Success Coach because I enjoy helping students solve problems and feel supported at DePaul. One of my favorite parts about being a Success Coach is that this role allows me to grow professionally and connect with my peers, while also helping them develop academically at DePaul.
Raymond Tyszko Hi there! I’m Raymond, a senior Film and Television Major at DePaul. I work on the Outreach side of Success Coaching. As a transfer student, I know how important it is to have a good support system around you. Being part of the Outreach team allows me to give back to the DePaul community and provide students with access to many of the support systems I received when I first transferred in. This is a big reason why I wanted to do this job.
