Neuroscience Support at Tutoring Services
Greetings, Undergraduate Neuroscientists! You can achieve your academic goals, and our Neuroscience tutors are here to support you along the way, whether in an individual appointment or a Neuroscience-focused group meeting.
Our tutors are all current undergraduates or graduate students who, having achieved a certain level of academic success themselves, are dedicated to helping their fellow students strive for the same.

As per our Appointment Policies, appointments can be scheduled via our online scheduler up to 7 days in advance with a limit of one individual appointment per day and two individual appointments per week in fall (three per week in spring), with the option of holding a similar number of group appointments (see below).

Group Learning Support: Neuroscience
Tutoring Services also provides opportunities for group study that focus on the chemistry courses for which we see the highest demand and at peak periods of the semester. Keep an eye on the calendar below for upcoming group opportunities.
- One-hour Weekly Learning Roundtables offer students the opportunity work with each other and a tutor to improve their own understanding of course material, and they recur regularly giving students a chance to space out their studying and deepen learning and retention.
