Academic Success

Academic Success provides a  wide range of academic support services to complement and enhance students' efforts to become more skilled and confident learners. Peer Tutors conduct one-on-one and small group sessions to guide students in reviewing course  material, gaining a better understanding of key course content, preparing for exams, and developing more effective study strategies for courses. Writing Center Consultants assist students with all aspects of the writing process, including invention, drafting, organization, revising, editing, grammar and punctuation, research, and proper citations. Academic Coaches engage in structured, collaborative conversations with students to help them stay accountable and committed to their goals; understand their habits, thinking patterns, strengths, and weaknesses; improve self-regulation; and learn more effective study strategies. Supplemental Instruction (SI) Leaders plan and facilitate weekly, peer-facilitated group study sessions for students in historically challenging courses to not only help them master the material but to also allow them to become  more effective learners. Students can schedule tutoring, writing, or coaching appointments through TracCloud (tutortrac.iin3d.com) and view the current SI session schedule on the Academic Success web site.
