If someone else is planning on joining, please leave a note in your appointment to help your tutor best prepare. For larger groups, please see our Tutor-Led Study Group Session information below.

Study Halls
Study Halls are an opportunity for you to prepare for an upcoming exam with fellow classmates and the help of a tutor and/or SI Leader, depending on the course. Unlike traditional 1-on-1 tutoring appointments, Study Halls are designed for you to collaborate with other students and ask questions when you need help. You can stay for as little or as long as you’d like! View the schedule on the calendar below.
Drop-in Tutoring
Drop-in tutoring is available for quick questions, no appointment necessary. Sessions are approximately 20 minutes, but can go longer if demand for tutoring is low. View the schedule on the calendar below.
About Tutoring
Tutors at the Student Success Center are students who have excelled in their disciplines and are here to help you excel in yours. Our tutors can help you reinforce what you already know and understand new material through working practice problems, reviewing study strategies, and using their course experience to explain content. We provide tutoring for over 200 UofA courses.
All SSC Tutors complete College Reading & Learning Association (CRLA) Level I Certification training during their first year of tutoring, and we work hard to ensure that all tutors have the tools and resources to assist you to the best of their ability.
There is no cost to attend a tutoring session!
