Graduate Student Burnout

Are you swamped with the demands of graduate school and wondering how the heck you’re going to manage it all? Are you feeling stressed, exhausted, and overwhelmed? Are anxiety, perfectionism, or procrastination stopping you from succeeding in grad. school? Are you lacking the personalized support you need to complete your degree? With drop-out estimates ranging as high as 50%, you’re in good company. Many graduate students need help mastering graduate school.

You knew when you applied that graduate school was going to be challenging, but you probably didn’t expect it to be this hard. Massive stacks of reading, high-pressure exams, impossible deadlines, and a looming thesis or dissertation can be overwhelming. Balancing all of that with the everyday responsibilities of life and you may feel like it’s gotten to be all too much.

Maybe you feel lost, untethered, and unsupported. But the good news is, you don’t have to go it alone. There is help! Academic success coaching can help graduate students overcome the challenges of grad. school so that they can get unstuck, stay unstuck, and finish their degrees.

If you’re feeling stressed out, wondering if you really belong in grad. school, aren’t sure how you’re going to get through this degree, or thinking about quitting, then read on because THIS IS FOR YOU.

Why Academic Success Coaching?

Graduate student success isn’t all about willpower, commitment, or intelligence. Unlike your undergraduate degree, you can’t brute force and memorize your way through the curriculum. Graduate school requires strategy, resilience, and many hidden skills that allow you to work faster and more efficiently. Sadly, faculty often take it for granted that you have developed these skills and don’t provide enough support.

That’s why I’m here. To help graduate students develop these skills and build their confidence so that they can tackle the challenges of graduate school.

The Truth About Graduate School

Let’s face it, graduate school is expensive! Every semester you’re there costs you time and money. Not to mention the stress. And what if you don’t finish? Did you know that:

  • An estimated 1 in 3 master’s students and nearly half of all Ph.D. students drop out!
  • The average cost of a Ph.D. ranges from $50,000 to over $100,000!
  • That’s on top of the average $30,000 to $120,000 that you might have spent earning a master’s degree!
  • The average time for a Ph.D. is 8.5 years!

It’s Outrageous! And it’s enough to drive you crazy, but it doesn’t have to. I earned a master’s degree while working two jobs and finished my research-based Ph.D. in 3 years. How? I had great support and fantastic mentors. Unfortunately, not all graduate students are that lucky. That’s where academic success coaching comes in.
