Abstract
Thrive 101 is a proactive, occupation-centered educational intervention designed to support emerging adults during the challenging transition to college. Grounded in evidence regarding the importance of resilience, self-efficacy, and experiential learning, the course equips first-year college students with practical coping strategies, resilience tools, growth in self-efficacy, self-awareness and guided opportunities to apply new skills in real time. Delivered through a hybrid model facilitated by occupational therapy students, Thrive 101 addresses common barriers to academic persistence by strengthening emotional regulation, social connectedness, executive functioning and adaptive routines. The program aims to enhance student’s capacity to navigate academic, social, and emotional demands, promoting long-term well-being and success in college and beyond.
