About the ARC

The Academic Resource Center (ARC), located on the first floor of the Library, provides several different types of academic assistance, including academic advising for mostly freshmen, writing and math tutoring, and study skills. There is also a small computer lab, and a job/career information center. Several times, during the semester, the ARC holds short Seminars to assist students who feel they may need additional assistance with study skills, i.e. time management, procrastination, text book reading, how to deal with test anxiety, etc.

The services provided by the ARC are free, and usually do not require an appointment.
