What should I bring?
Bring a specific question, problem, or concept you are struggling with. You can also bring any notes, textbooks, or other materials you’ve been using. Be prepared to talk about what you have already tried or where you are getting stuck.
How long can I work with a peer consultant?
Peer consultants will help as time and demand allow. If there are multiple students waiting, you may have a brief session and then be asked to circle back so others can get help too.
