5 Things All College Students Need to Know: Academic Resources
UMBC's Academic Success Center offers free tutoring for all first and second level courses in most subjects.  Tutoring is an appointment you make to study and practice with a small group of peers and a trained tutor who has succeeded in the class previously.
  
SI PASS (Supplemental Instruction/Peer-Assisted Study Sessions) in traditionally difficult courses.  These regularly scheduled, out-of-class review sessions help you engage with course material, compare lecture notes, discuss readings, develop organizational tools and predict test items.

Writing Center Tutors can help you on any writing assignment for any class, at any stage of the writing process (outlining, rough drafts, final drafts). This is not an editing service, so make your appointment well before your assignment is due to implement suggestions.  

Videos and guides available to help you succeed in online learning, including:
  • Organization
  • Time management
  • Study skills
  • Working with instructors and other students
