Academic Support Services

Academic Support Services

We aim to create a college culture that is sensitive and responsive to the needs of students. We work collaboratively with students to identify their strengths and empower them to realize their academic and personal potential.

Our Student Success Advisor team is here to support you in your program. We have several resources in place to help to support students that are struggling in their program. Students who are not maintaining the required GPA, are encouraged to contact the Student Success Advisor team to discuss their academic progress and how they can help.

Accommodation planning and services are tailored to relate with the disability-related needs of each student and are determined based on the documentation provided and program-specific requirements.

Accommodation plans can support students both in class and with assignments and tests.

If you require academic accommodation support due to medical reasons or disabilities, please contact your Campus Director.

The following services are available to all students:

Study Buddy Program

The study buddy program is designed to provide free one-on-one or small group tutoring services to students who need immediate assistance to gain a deeper understanding of the course material or assignments currently being discussed in class.

A study buddy may be a senior from another semester or a peer who will help you to clarify difficulties, explain concepts, share relevant materials and in some cases valuable study skills and habits with you.

In order to maximize your benefit from the study buddy program you must review your work before meeting your study buddy.

The study buddy obtains an opportunity to mentor other students, build on individual training skills, and sharpen one’s own knowledge besides generating valuable amounts of goodwill.

Certificates and reference letters are issued to the study buddy on verification of efforts.

Study Groups

Study groups will be conducted at fixed times which will provide students with an opportunity to meet their instructor in a group setting to obtain clarifications or further guidance on assignments, projects, difficult concepts.

Tutoring

Tutoring services can be arranged if required by the student. Please contact your instructor to see which tutoring services are available for your program.
