Success! That’s What We're All About!
Join the growing number of students who are studying together and improving their grades at the Academic Support Center! Our free services include staff and tutors who help students with a confusing first year chemistry assignment ... or a several-draft senior research project. They work with students who need help in one course ... or a course of study that seems overwhelming. They help honor students ... or conditionally admitted students. Success! That's what the Academic Support Center is all about.
Now EMU's Writing Program operates within the academic support center. Student tutors specially trained to guide you in the writing process, tutor you in the best ways to recognize your own errors and become your own best editor.
