If you received communication from the Office of the Provost about Second Wind, this means you have been invited to return to campus and participate in the Second Wind Program due to your academic standing. The Second Wind program allows you to return to MSU the following semester and continue taking classes.

The enrollment process is done through the Allen Yarnell Center for Student Success (AYCSS). Students can call AYCSS at 406-994-7627 or email [email protected]. AYCSS will then enroll students in the appropriate US103 course of the program. 

Motivation, attaining flow, habits, time management techniques, learning strategies, career navigation, notetaking, growth mindset, critical thinking, information literacy, financial literacy, student development, self-care, goal setting and other meaningful topics for every learner.

Your eligibility for financial aid is separate from the Second Wind Program. Contact the MSU Office of Financial Aid at 406-994-2845 or email [email protected]. Additionally, we encourage you to schedule an appointment with one of our Financial Coaches to strategize about your school financing options.

Passionate and committed faculty and staff are brought in from various departments on campus; a dedicated success advisor who supports students and guest speakers from support systems around campus.

Second Wind is a semester long course and meets once a week for the duration of the semester. However, the skills, supports, and connections you make will last your entire MSU career and beyond.

The Second Wind Program is managed through the Allen Yarnell Center for Student Success (AYCSS).
