P.A.S.S., (Peak Academic Success and Satisfaction), a new Counseling and Wellness Services program, is designed to help U.N.C. students to reach their academic goals. P.A.S.S. starts with the firm belief that every student at Carolina has the potential to succeed academically. UNC students are smart and talented, but being smart, talented, and even hard-working, is not always a guarantee of success or satisfaction.

The P.A.S.S. model is based on the belief that you will be more likely to realize your potential, will perform better and will enjoy your academics most when: you have clear academic goals based on your own values, academic interests, career goals, and life aspirations; when you possess well developed skills; when you develop their own personal strengths, when you are able to identify and decrease the impediments to your success; and when you are able to balance stress sufficiently to remain motivated and engaged with your academic work. P.A.S.S. is designed to offer students resources, skills training, and support to help you to identify their goals, hone your academic skills and stay engaged with your work, so that you can do your academic best while enjoying school. P.A.S.S. promotes working smarter, not just harder, by helping students to determine what you individually need to succeed, helping you to determine which of the many campus resources would be appropriate to meet their needs and helping make it easier for you to access and use those resources.
