Mission

The mission of the Center for Academic Support is to provide qualified student tutors and staff who support classroom instruction while encouraging students to set and reach their academic goals.

Client Profile

The Center serves a broad range of students: those who have high GPAs and want to keep them, those who have low GPAs and want to improve them, and everyone in between. Students using the Center come in an average of 5 times during the semester for an average of 4 hours per student. The number of students using the Center has risen steadily in the past ten years, from 589 in Fall 1994 to 785 in Fall 2004; in a typical semester, students receive over 3000 hours of tutoring.
