AmeriCorps–COTC Student Resource Center

Helping students navigate campus and community resources.

Overview

The Student Resource Center will be closed during summer semester and will reopen in August. Please reach out to a Student Success Coach for help during summer semester: go.cotc.edu/successcoach

The AmeriCorps–COTC Student Resource Center provides one-on-one assistance to all COTC students. Student Resource Center coordinators help students who face personal barriers to their academic success by connecting them to resources on campus and in the community. They address non-academic challenges, including:

  • Housing and rent
  • Utility bills
  • Food insecurity
  • Transportation
  • Childcare
  • Legal services
  • Mental health, addiction and personal counseling
  • Sexual assault or domestic violence support
  • Disability services
  • Technical assistance and access to computers, Wi-Fi and other technology
  • And more

The Student Resource Center exists thanks to many different partners. The initiative is hosted at COTC and is part of the Ohio Campus Compact AmeriCorps program. The Student Resource Center is coordinated by several AmeriCorps members who serve the COTC community.
