College Student Inventory (CSI)
The CSI is a 20 to 30 minute online survey and is offered to all Wisconsin Covenant Scholars at the start of first and second semester. This questionnaire gives you an opportunity to share your background and thoughts on a variety of topics. Your responses to this questionnaire will allow us to connect you with services that can help you realize your goals and dreams.
Career Services
Career services provides a variety of workshops that include: exploring majors and discovering career paths, resumes and cover letters, preparing for job fairs, preparing for interviews, mock interviews, finding jobs and internships and one that will help you answer the question, "Why should I hire you?"
Financial Aid
A financial aid officer will discuss budgeting and other financial issues important to students.
Tutoring and Learning Center
A staff member from the TLC will discuss study strategies and encourage you to stop at the center for academic assistance
MBTI (Meyers-Briggs Type Inventory)
The MBTI is a personality inventory that indicates personal preferences on several scales. Knowledge of these preferences is useful to better understand your learning style, your interpersonal communication style, your college major and career preference.
Allen Center
Peer health advocates from the Allen Center conduct a series of workshops that cover nutrition, exercise, fitness, alcohol use, tobacco use, stress management and issues regarding sexual assault
A member of the Student Involvement and Employment Office will address student opportunities to become involved in leadership, student organizations, volunteerism, and on-or-off campus employment
Learning Styles Inventory (LSI)
The LSI assesses twenty-two factors representing environmental, sociological, emotional, and physical factors associated with learning. It will help you understand which study modality best suits your learning style.
