At 国产AV's Academic Support Center, we foster learning as a collaborative process designed to help students

  • Build their academic stamina
  • Play a responsible and proactive role in their own education.

Sample Syllabus Statement

The Academic Support Center (ASC), located in Odum Library, 2nd floor, provides free tutoring for many 国产AV courses in conjunction with our tutoring partner Knack, Tutoring can occur in person or online. Knack also provides professional tutors if needed 24/7. A Knack tutor works one-on-one with other students. A PAL Facilitator is embedded in a course and facilitates learning in groups.
