 Professional Tutorials

The primary goal of the tutorial services component of the Center of Excellence is to

 provide a means to strengthen students’ comprehension and application of basic science concepts. Throughout the academic year, students will be advised, counseled and closely monitored to ensure early intervention strategies when academic problems are identified.

The School of Pharmacy will provide assistance to all students desiring or deem to be in need of tutorial assistance, in a specific course or courses. The tutorial system will utilize the skills and knowledge of upper class Pharmacy and Health Sciences students who possess a minimum grade point average of 3.00 (B) or above. Tutorial sessions will occur in small group settings and on an individual basis, depending on the need of the student.
