Academic Achievement

 

Academic Achievement Office

Every student has his or her own style of learning. The office of Academic Achievement serves as a resource for all students at St. Lawrence, by helping students not only to identify academic areas of strength and areas in need of improvement, but also to implement specific strategies to achieve greater academic success. To help students accomplish their academic goals, the office of Academic Achievement hosts the following programs:

Peer Tutoring Program

Tutoring is free for all students. At St. Lawrence University students are welcome to sign up for peer tutoring, which is available in almost every subject and is offered for most introductory-level courses. The peer tutors are St. Lawrence students who have distinguished themselves in their departments with high grades and productive study habits. They are recommended by faculty members and participate in a five-hour training process.

Individual Academic Counseling

Any student at St. Lawrence who would like to achieve more academically may request an individual meeting with the Coordinator of Academic Achievement. The Coordinator will then work with the student to develop a plan with the goal of achieving increased academic success and motivation. Such plans may include individualized work in the areas of goal-setting, time management, and learning strategies as applied in a university setting. This meeting may lead to further meetings in this office or with other resources on campus.

Academic Success Workshops

At the beginning of each semester, a series of workshops is offered on various topics, such as time management and best practices for successful college students. In addition, any student, student organization, faculty member or coach may request specific workshops on these or other related topics.
