Determine what clubs to join: we can help you get connected.
Manage personal problems: Sometimes things come up that can distract or even prevent you from going to class. If you are experiencing these kinds of challenges, let someone in the Center for Student Success know and we may be able to find resources and share information that can help.

Tutoring Center
Do you need help with a subject?—Our Tutoring Center is dedicated to help you.
Tutoring for a specific course/subject:
Receive free, one-on-one tutoring in a course/subject you are looking to get some help with. In most cases, tutoring will be offered by an upper-class student, who has received an A in the class.
Reading, writing, and studying:
We also offers free individualized assistance to anyone in the University community who wants to develop efficient strategies for reading, writing, and studying. Professional and peer consultants help with writing issues such as generating ideas for papers, writing research papers, and organizing and editing drafts. They also teach flexible and effective strategies for managing time, taking notes, reading, and preparing for exams.
First-Year Experience
At UHart, we want you to feel connected and part of the family from day one. That's why we have developed a unique first-year experience to introduce you to campus.
Orientation and First-Week
Orientation: We have five sessions over the summer and one in the spring. You will have a chance to learn about campus resources, how to prepare for your first year, meet classmates, and more. Learn more.
First Week: Your first weekend on campus is a crucial time to meet new people, explore the University, get ready for the start of classes, and have fun. We’ve developed programming to facilitate all of that and more. Learn more.
Learning Communities
Academic Learning Communities: During your first semester, you have the option to participate in first-semester academic learning communities, where you will meet with students who take classes that are similar to yours. An example of that could be writing and psychology. Students enrolled in both classes will meet as a group and take classes together. This will help introduce you to related fields that can help your career.
Residential/Commuter Living Communities: Whether you live on campus or commute, you will be assigned special communities to help connect you to students who have similar interest or are taking the same courses as you. Some of the themes include wellness, community service, global engagement, and creative art expressions. Learn more: commuter and residential.
First-Year Advising and Program
First Year Advising Program: As a first year student, you’ll be assigned a first year advisor within the Center for Student Success, who will help connect you with resources and offices on campus, teach you about time management and study strategies, and answer any questions that arise along the way.
US 190 Course—First-year success seminar: Your first year success seminar is a one-credit course taught by your first year advisor. It is focused on teaching you the necessary skills to navigate college life successfully at UHart.
