Where is the Tutoring Center?
The Tutoring Center is in the Browning Resource Center (Downstairs from Testing Center).

Why is Drop-In Tutoring useful?
Drop-In Tutoring allows students to work on assignments independently while having the opportunity to have tutor assistance when needed.  Drop-In Tutoring also encourages the formation of study groups because students will often make contact with other students in the same subject area.  Finally, it allows students the flexibility to come in at their convenience during posted hours instead of keeping set appointments with a tutor.

When is Drop-In Tutoring offered?
Tutors are available Monday through Friday during designated hours and some Saturdays. Check the Drop-In Schedule regularly because times and subjects offered may change during the course of a semester.

How do I sign up for Drop-In Tutoring?
The first time you enter the Tutoring center, you will need to enter your Student Identification Number, along with your name, phone number, and e-mail address. Thereafter, only a Student Identification Number is required.

How does Drop-In Tutoring work?
First, stop by the Tutoring Center and view the Drop-In Tutoring Schedule.  This schedule will let you know when a tutor is available for your particular subject.  Then, pick a time that is convenient for you and come on in!

What can I expect from Drop-In Tutoring?
When you come in for Drop-In Tutoring, you will sign in on the computer and have a seat at one of the tables in the Tutoring Center.  The tutors will circulate through the Center, answering student questions as they arise.  Please be patient.  Tutors address questions on a first-come, first-serve basis, but there is always time to address everyone's questions.
