Welcome

The campus of Western Kentucky University provides students with many resources to assist in their academic pursuits. Located within the Academic Advising & Retention Center in Downing University Center, WKU students will find The Learning Center.

 TLC offers an ideal environment to foster student success. Students can take advantage of a vast array of services to supplement course specific content distributed within the classroom. Students may utilize our large, quiet study space and our 12 machine computer lab to complete assignments.

 TLC also provides face to face tutoring in over 200 WKU courses by our certified tutors. TLC offers online tutoring as well! In addition to specific courses, we offer tutoring in many academic skill areas including time management, note taking strategies, and reading comprehension.

Students entering The Learning Center are also exposed to a collection of over 30 photographs, made all over the world by WKU Photojournalism faculty, staff, and students. This display is entitled Breath: A Global Portrait.

TLC serves as a study hall tracking facility for many organizations across the campus.

 The Learning Center serves the WKU campus five days a week and strives for all students to reach academic success.

 Prepare today for a better tomorrow. TLC…Come Grow With Us!
