Welcome to the Student Success Center

 

The Student Success Center provides free support to Stephens College residential undergraduates who want to improve their academic skills. SSC tutors may see students individually or work with them in small groups. Walk-in appointments are welcome, but due to increased student traffic during the semester, appointments are preferred. Please click the Contact Us link above to make an appointment with one of our tutors.

Our Mission of Success

The Student Success Center facilitates student learning beyond the classroom by offering one-on-one and group sessions in many course subjects, as well as in time management, study skills and writing.
