[Student Support Services]

The Student Support Services Program provides comprehensive continuing academic assistance for undergraduate students with academic potential who meet financial guidelines, and/or are from families where neither parent holds a bachelor’s degree or are physically disabled. The project offers individualized peer tutoring in a wide variety of general education courses; professional counseling for academic, personal, and career concerns; an expanded section of CNS 100 Educational and Life Planning for students who are uncertain about a major and/or need assistance in establishing/clarifying appropriate educational objectives and personal goals; and provides access to campus and community cultural events. In addition, in coordination with the Office of the Dean of Student Life, the project offers individual assistance to qualified students with disabilities (including the learning disabled) in need of accommodation. Tape recorders, alternative testing procedures, and a support group are available as needed. All services are free of charge to qualifying students. Students seeking assistance who have yet to achieve junior standing can determine their eligibility and apply for services at the program offices or call 745-4308.
