Welcome to the Academic Success Center
Here at USI, we want to see students succeed during their time on campus and beyond. That's why we've created several robust academic support programs available to all students. In addition to academic coaching, tutoring, and SI, and additional resources through the Academic Success Center.
Beyond our free learning support services, we also provide General Studies (GENS) courses designed to help students enhance their academic skills and confidence.
Our Academic Success Guide is another valuable resource, offering strategies and worksheets to assist students in becoming successful college learners.
Throughout the semester, we host workshops on various academic success topics. During Academic Success Week, additional sessions are held to cover critical strategies for excelling in college. Furthermore, Academic Success Center staff are available upon request to deliver workshops to classes and student organizations on topics such as:
- Effective academic planning
- Note-taking techniques
- Time management strategies
- Reading textbooks effectively
- Test-taking strategies
- Managing test anxiety
We are proud to provide several academic support structures to help students achieve their educational goals.
Our free academic support services include:
- A welcoming, relaxed, and non-judgmental environment
- On-site subject based tutors
- SI (Supplemental Instruction sessions)
