What is a Peer Study Consultant?
Our Peer Study Consultants are specially trained to help students IN PERSON in our center. Their role is to help orient students, let them know what services might be beneficial for them, and to provide some services to those who want to tackle college a bit more effectively.
If you aren't sure what you need but you know you should talk to someone about your academics, make an appointment to speak to one of these friendly students who will get you going in the right direction.
