The Peer Tutoring Program provides support for coursework outside the areas covered by the Math Center and Writing Center. Peer tutoring is a free resource that is available to all undergraduate students for most 100-200 level courses. All tutors have excelled in the courses they support and earned at least an “A-”. Tutors are trained and enjoy supporting their fellow students.

Drop-in tutoring is a free and useful resource for students who have specific questions and/or are challenged by the material being covered in a course. Drop-in tutors are students who excelled in the course(s) they support. Students attend Drop-in tutoring to clarify questions with assignments, prepare for exams, and even learn how to learn information better. Drop-in tutoring is also a great place to make new friends among your classmates and form study groups. Please view the current Drop-in Tutoring Schedule or visit the Academic Success Center to learn more about how you can best utilize Drop-in tutoring support in one or more of your classes!
The Academic Progress Monitoring Program (APM) is designed to monitor students' academic progress throughout the semester. Monitors work with students on a weekly or biweekly basis and help them identify and overcome roadblocks in order to reach their academic goals. Academic Progress Monitors work closely with staff in the University Advising and Academic Success Centers and connect students with various support offices on campus, such as the Math and Writing Centers, Student Accessibility Services, and the Center for Health and Well-Being, to assist students in meeting their academic goals.
Students can request the help of an Academic Progress Monitor by calling the University Advising Center at 413-782-1312 or stopping by the Student Hub (Campus Center, Second Floor).
The Early Alert System (EAS) helps identify students at the earliest sign of academic trouble. EAS is an online system where faculty can share concerns about students, including attendance and class performance. Once the EAS report is submitted, a member of the Academic Success Center or University Advising Center staff reaches out to the student to provide any necessary support and to encourage the use of the various resources on campus.
Professors can also acknowledge a student’s excellent work through the Early Alert System. Acknowledging exemplary work demonstrates to students that such behavior is valued and can reinforce positive behavior. These students who are identified by professors for exemplary work receive a letter from the Assistant Provost for Student Success.
The Academic Success Center provides workshops on various topics related to academic success. Topics include study strategies, test-taking, time management, and more. Workshops are available to any class, department, floor, group, organization, or team. The Academic Success Center also invites departmental collaboration and is willing to tailor workshops as needed.
To schedule a presentation or workshop, contact the Academic Success Center. Please schedule workshops at least two weeks in advance for the best options regarding availability.
