ACADEMIC RESOURCE CENTER POLICY AND PROCEDURES

 

Academic Expectations:

  • Tutors will not do your homework for you.
  • Tutors are not instructors. Tutoring is supplemental to instruction. It does not take place of attending classes.
  • We encourage you to meet with your instructor to discuss assignments and content prior to a tutoring visit.
  • All students will comply with Division of Student Affairs Community Standards, Code of Student Conduct.

Tutoring Session Preparation

  • You must bring your notes, texts, handouts and other relevant materials.
  • You must come to tutoring sessions prepared by reviewing assigned chapters, articles, handouts, notes and other relevant materials.
  • Tutees and Tutors are expected to be on time for all scheduled appointments.

Tutoring Center Attendance Policy:

Cancellations and No-Show:

Repeated cancellations and No-Show/Missed will result in the loss of tutoring services.

  1. If you can not attend your appointment, you are required to cancel at least 3 hours before the start time of the appointment. Otherwise, the appointment will be marked as Canceled/Missed.
  2. To cancel the appointment, go to your TutorTrac home page, open your schedule, click on the X icon on the appointment you are cancelling.
