Tutoring Attendance Policy
Our services are free and open to all enrolled students but resources are limited. In order to serve as many students as possible, we have an attendance policy. As such, if a student misses three scheduled tutoring appointments in a row without prior cancellation, the student may not be able to schedule additional appointments during that term. Students may begin scheduling appointments again at the start of the next term.
