Tutoring

Student-athletes may be required to attend mandatory tutoring sessions upon the recommendation of the athletics academic coordinator/counselor or professor. All student-athletes are encouraged to take advantage of tutorial services provided by athletics and other campus personnel.

Tutors will be available for students in the academic center. A list of tutors' academic center hours will be posted outside the academic center.

Student-athletes who need extra assistance or who have time conflicts with a tutor’s academic center hours may request a private tutoring appointment by completing the Tutor Request forms located in the academic center or in their counselor’s office. Student-athletes who use the Tutor Request forms to set up private tutoring appointments agree to the terms listed in the Student-Athlete Responsibility for Tutorial Services statement.

Student-athletes will receive credit for study hall hours when they attend approved tutoring sessions. Student-athletes are also encouraged to use the tutoring services provided by the ACE (Room 110, Student Center). Student-athletes are encouraged to arrange individual study sessions with their professors during office hours. To receive credit toward study hall hours, the session must be pre-approved by the academic coordinator and must last at least 30 minutes. Once the session is approved, the student-athlete will be provided with a Faculty Tutorial form to be completed by the professor. If the student does not obtain prior approval for the session or return the faculty tutorial form within the specified time, he/she will not receive study hall credit.

Any student-athlete who is dismissed from a tutoring session for behavioral reasons will not receive credit for study hall hours and will be reported to the appropriate head coach.

Student-Athlete Responsibility for Tutorial Services Statement

By completing a Tutor Request Form, I hereby agree to the following terms regarding my tutorial appointment.

1. I will treat tutors with respect and expect the same respect in return.
2. I will not cancel any tutoring appointments without first consulting the athletics academic coordinator/counselor. If I have to cancel an appointment due to an emergency, I will: *contact the academic coordinator or academic center monitor before 12 p.m. on the of my appointment. *show proof of illness to the academic coordinator if I am sick and have to miss an appointment (i.e. documentation from clinic, doctor, or training room). *contact my assigned tutor to tell them of the cancellation and contact the academic coordinator to reschedule the appointment.
