For test accommodation requests, please comply with the suggested time frames to help ensure that we can make all of the necessary arrangements for your test accommodations:

• Test/Quiz - 5 school days advance notice preferred
• Final Exams - 2 weeks advance notice preferred

Students arriving more than 15 minutes late to an exam will not be allowed additional time to compensate for tardiness. Student Accessibility Services will consult with the professor to proceed according to the professor’s instructions. Whether or not the student can take the exam may also depend on space and staff availability.

The Writing Center helps students to grow as writers, enhancing the quality of their written work in every discipline. Through one-on-one sessions with  student Writing Consultants, students grow in their understanding of the writing process, develop their ability to apply the process to all their written work, increase their understanding of the conventions of writing, and develop their ability to adhere to standard written English.

The Peer Tutoring program enhances student success in coursework across the curriculum by providing individualized instruction for students who want to further develop their knowledge and skills. Peer Tutors are provided training in student-centered learning approaches that support extended classroom learning and promote academic achievement.
