Tutoring FAQs
We've included some commonly asked questions about tutoring at Northeast.
A tutor can be obtained by filling out the Tutoring Request Form. This form can be found in Academic Support located in Union 73. If there's a tutor available, drop-in hour cards will be available. If there isn't a tutor available, the Academic Support Coordinator will contact you with more information.
Drop-in hours are designated hours that tutors will be present in Academic Support. This means you don't have to make an appointment to see a tutor—simply drop-in during the designated hours for support in a subject.
Drop-in hours are posted throughout the buildings on campus. Drop-in hours are also posted online via the Tutoring webpage. These hours change depending on the course offerings each semester.
If there are no drop-in hours for a particular subject, a tutor may be available by appointment. Contact the Academic Support Coordinator at (402) 844-7125 for more information about scheduling tutoring appointments.
If there isn't a tutor available for your class, the Academic Support Coordinator will search for one. This process may take 1-3 weeks depending on the class. Contact the Academic Support Coordinator at (402) 844-7125 for more information.
