Academic Support
Students enrolled at the Graduate School enjoy small class sizes and highly individualized attention from instructors. In addition to instructor support, you may also contact your Program Director for academic support in developing stronger study skills, scheduling individualized tutoring, honing your research skills, and sharpening your writing skills. You will receive a response within 24 hours, either to set up a time to work together via a chat, or by telephone.
