Tutorial
A tutorial is a class listed in the catalog taught to a student on an individual basis. The content of the course is the same as the material taught in the regular class. The contact time requirement for a tutorial is one documented contact hour per week during which the subject matter will be discussed and student progress evaluated. Only instructors who have previously taught the class in the regular session will be approved to teach a tutorial unless permission is granted by the dean. Only students with a true need will be considered for a tutorial, and it is up to the academic school and instructor whether to grant a tutorial. It is strongly recommended that undergraduate students who are granted tutorials have at least a 2.5 cumulative GPA. Graduate students should have at least a 3.0 cumulative GPA to qualify for a tutorial course.
To enroll in a tutorial course, the Tutorial Proposal form must be completed, signed, and returned to the Registrar’s Office no later than the third week of the term in which the work is to be done. An add/drop/enrollment form and a syllabus must be attached.
