Welcome to the PASS Program
"My PASS sessions were very informative and extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend PASS to everyone that can go. It brought my grade from a C to an A."
The Peer Assisted Study Session (PASS) Program provides academic support for students enrolled in specifically designated classes that are considered historically difficult. Working with the faculty who teach those classes, we hire undergraduate peer leaders who have been successful in the class to re-attend the class along with currently enrolled students and then facilitate group study sessions three times per week.
PASS leaders complete a rigorous training course, and they work toward tutor certification through the College Reading and Learning Association. Our goal is to work with students not only on content, but also on study and learning strategies. Students can participate in PASS by registering for classes coded with a P in the schedule of classes.
