Academic Support: Tutoring Policy

The Student Success Center offers one-on-one or small group tutoring, free of charge, to all Dominican students, regardless of program. In general, students are allotted one hour of tutoring per week per subject for each course in which they are currently registered. Additional hours may be available to meet student needs by arrangement with the Coordinator of Learning Services. Students may request a tutor online. Tutoring is guaranteed for Math and Writing, and is available for most other subjects. Occasionally a qualified tutor is not available for a specific course.

The consequences for missed appointments are spelled out in the tutoring contract between student and tutor. Students who are unable to keep a tutoring appointment should cancel as early as possible so that other students may use that time.
