Richie Gebauer - Dean of Student Success

Navigating the complexities of college simultaneous to balancing comprehensive wellness is a challenge. To ensure student success, Bryn Mawr has committed to effectively serve and support the whole student, both in and outside of the classroom, to find that balance. We want our students to thrive academically while also feeling fulfilled in all other aspects of their lives at and beyond the college. Through advising, programming, and mentorship, our student success team is dedicated to supporting them in their holistic journey.

Once a referral is made, Student Support Services and/or the appropriate Class Dean will complete outreach to the referred student and invite them to meet in-person, over zoom, or via phone to discuss concerns, resources, and actions to address needs.
