Tutoring and Supplemental Instruction

Tutoring

Tutoring is a free university service available to you if you need assistance in 100-300 level courses. You'll meet with tutors one-on-one and get the extra help you need in your class. If you did well in a class and are looking for an opportunity to help other students, you can also apply to become a tutor (see below).

Supplemental Instruction

Supplemental Instruction is often provided if you are enrolled in a historically challenging class. Supplemental Instruction (SI) includes a series of review sessions, led by an SI leader, who prepares a review from each lecture the instructor gives. If you did well in a class and are looking for an opportunity to help other students, you can also apply to become an SI leader.

I want to become an SI leader

If you want to become an SI Leader, application cycles take place two times per academic year.*

Position Requirements:

  • 2nd year student
  • GPA 3.5 and above
  • B+ or higher in the class you wish to lead

    Please note that a referral form is required and you will need to send the form to the instructor you select as a reference.
