STUDENT SERVICES
Learn more about our services, in-person hours and other resources.
We encourage you to take advantage of the full-time tutoring faculty, adjuncts, peer tutors, study groups, computer labs and online support at your disposal. While some tutoring options offer general guidance, others are intended for specific areas of study, such as math, English, reading and science. Don’t forget to meet with your instructor on a regular basis, connect with an advisor and/or take advantage of one of our many tutoring options.
Bottom line, if you want a head start in your studies or if you're struggling in a specific course, the sooner you tap into these resources, the faster we can get you back on track and help you stay there.
