CNR Tutoring Program
The College of Natural Resources is invested in helping our students achieve academic success, so we offer free tutoring services. Tutors are carefully chosen to ensure that they mastered the content of the courses they tutor.

Student Expectations
Students should come to tutorial sessions prepared having attended class and taken notes, with all necessary books and materials, and having attempted homework and assignments.
The tutor is a successful student, but not a teacher or an expert. Though they are a good resource, the tutor will not do the student’s work and is not responsible for the student’s final course grade.
