Academic Support Services

 

The Math/Science Support Center offers assistance on a one-to-one basis and in small groups. Math and science students may attend pre-arranged practice sections sessions or receive walk-in tutoring during scheduled times. Support is also available through computer and video materials. Student assistance in this Center is coordinated and supervised by the Director of the Math and Science Support Center. The Center is staffed by the director and peer tutors. Academic Support Services arranges individualized tutorial sessions for students taking course within all divisions.

 

The Writing Center provides assistance to students at any stage of their writing development (for all courses). Tutors are available to help students focus on a topic, review the research process, revise arguments, and copy-edit final drafts.

OUR PURPOSE is to help you achieve your maximum academic potential. The Office of Academic Resources is designed to provide students with a high degree of support and attention to individual needs in their pursuit of academic achievement and professional development. Through many services and programs, Academic Resources empowers students to assume responsibility for their own education and become self-directed learners.

 

Programs and Services

  • Coordinate tutoring services. The Office coordinates with the Math/Science and Writing Centers to provide tutoring to students. You can also contact the Office of Academic Resources to request a tutor in other fields of study. Peer tutors work with students on either an individual basis, or in some situations, in a group setting. The service is free to all day division students.

    Do not hesitate to contact the Office if you are interested in becoming a tutor! The more tutors we have, the more of you we can serve.
     

  • Serve as a liaison between faculty advisors, the registrar’s office, and you. The Office can provide you with pertinent information regarding semester registration and serve as a “super” advisor to you when your advisor is unavailable.
     

  • Work with students who have learning disabilities. The Office serves as a campus clearinghouse for students with learning disabilities.
     

  • Provide a variety of and continually updated academic support services. This includes workshops on study skills and time management, information on course expectations or degree requirements, and more.
