Advising and Tutoring

Advising for Full Time Students
All first year students will be advised by their Academic Foundations professor.  Upperclassmen will be assigned to an advisor in their major by the Academic Success Center.  All undeclared full time students will also be assigned to an advisor within the Academic Success Center.  Your advisor works with you to build a program of study, select courses, and stay focused on your academic goals.

As a full time student, you are responsible for making and keeping appointments with your advisor for academic counseling during pre-registration to avoid late fees and to ensure class selection.

Advising for Part Time Students
All part time students will be assigned to an academic advisor within their field of study.  All undecided part time students will be assigned to an advisor within the Academic Success Center.

If you need additional support, the professionals of the Academic Success Center (in the Harris and Betts Smith Learning Center) will assist you in finding a tutor to address your specific concerns as you travel the path to academic excellence.

Professional Tutoring
Centenary College’s Professional Tutoring program is administered by the Academic Success Center. The Tutorial Program is certified by the College Reading and Language Association. Professional Tutors are individuals with post secondary degrees who have completed a tutor training program. All tutoring is appointment based and may be one on one or in small groups of two or three.

Students may request tutoring themselves or can be referred by their instructors. Academic coaching is available to improve time management skills, study strategies, test taking skills, etc. There are no fees for any of the services offered through the Academic Success Center. 

Online Tutoring from The HUB
The HUB has three options. We believe you will get the most out of our tutoring services if you use either the face-to-face center or the virtual writing center.  However, if your schedule prohibits you from visiting the center during our operating hours, then this online tutoring service may be perfect for you.

Peer Tutoring
Centenary has developed an innovative program using Peer Tutors to provide academic assistance. Peer Tutors are college upper class students, highly trained in how to best provide academic and non-academic support for Centenary students.
