Accountability Groups

Accountability groups help Auburn students build friendships, learn new study skills, and set aside real time for schoolwork. Each group meets once a week for 90 minutes during the semester. A peer educator leads the group and guides focused study time, body doubling, and skill-building in a friendly, low-pressure space.

Accountability Groups make the most of your time:

• Check-in (10 minutes): Meet with your group and set a positive tone for the session.

• Set and share goals (10 minutes): Share your goals for homework, studying, or other academic work. 

• Focus time (60 minutes): Study on your own while trying new strategies, with support from the group. 

• Reflect (10 minutes): Celebrate what you finished, talk about what went well, and work through challenges together.

• Starting with positive energy

• Staying consistent and engaged 

• Respecting group rules and each other 

• Celebrating progress and asking questions

This semester, you will build friendships, learn new skills, and grow more confident in these areas:

• Setting academic goals and following through

• Concentration and memory strategies

• Exam preparation

• Getting comfortable with college life

• Peer and social connections

• Managing study time and workload
