The Center for Academic Success

ONLINE OPERATIONS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SUMMER A

USING ZOOM

The Center for Academic Success (CfAS) will continue to run via online operations through the Summer A 2021 term. Please read below for instructions on scheduling an online tutoring session.

With ZOOM, tutoring sessions are private and one on one. ZOOM offers the ability for tutors to share their screen, give presentations, and share images and files. Sessions can be recorded and played back at any time. 

Booking an appointment for remote tutoring lets you learn from the comfort of your home.

About Our Workshops

• The program can last from 5 weeks to 13 weeks depending on the content.
• The amount of extra credit points you can receive all depends on your professor.

ACADEMIC SUCCESS PLANS

SETTING STUDENTS UP FOR SUCCESS

Academic Success Plans (ASPs) exist for students who are interested in improving their academic performance in one or more areas. CfAS and collaborating departments have come together to create a holistic program for students who have concerns with balancing their academic performance with their life responsibilities. Each program is individual to the student, which is how small learning communities can be created at such a large institution like FIU.

ASP sessions are now available for students in Summer C courses. 

Contact the CfAS Director for more information about activating an ASP.
