How do I get a tutor?
Students needing a tutor must fill out an application which is available electronically below or they may come by the ASC and complete a paper copy. Generally, students can expect a two- to five-day wait for placement with a tutor. The assigned tutor will work with the student at regularly scheduled sessions throughout the semester. One-time tutoring sessions are available to help students with reading and writing assignments in any subject; appointments for these sessions can be scheduled by calling (336) 386-3460 or visiting the ASC. All tutoring takes place in the library and is supervised by the Assistant Directors.
