Abstract
Lynn University's initiative, The Resilience Toolkit, addresses the unique challenges first-year college students face during their transition. Aimed at reducing stress and enhancing academic performance, the program integrates a one-week mini-course into a required general education class. The course focuses on building a resilient identity through the OASES model of resilience, encompassing Optimism, Adaptability, Self-Efficacy, Emotional Regulation, and Self-Leadership. Preliminary results indicate a significant increase in students' resilience, emphasizing the program's positive impact on their well-being and academic success.
