Tutoring Overview
Midwestern University offers small group peer-tutoring services through the Office of Student Services. Tutoring is available during all academic years and is designed to help enhance test-taking skills, modify study habits, and/or focus on critical material and content. Peer tutoring services serve as an additional academic support and do not take the place of class attendance, face-to-face meetings with faculty/course directors, or meetings with peer study groups. Students who request tutoring services must regularly attend classes and meet with faculty prior to being approved for tutoring. Tutoring is an active learning process and students are expected to come prepared for all tutoring sessions. This includes communicating your needs ahead of time to your tutor and bringing questions to the tutoring session.
Tutoring Eligibility
Students who are in academic jeopardy in a course will be given priority in the tutoring program. Academic difficulty is defined by the college, however, students typically need to be failing or near failing in order to be approved for tutoring. In CHS and CGS only, students who fail to achieve the required grade point average may also request tutoring assistance. Students may not be eligible or may lose eligibility to receive a tutor if their test scores improve, or if the student fails to meet the requirement of attending lecture, laboratory and workshop sessions.
