Drop-In Help

Students can obtain assistance understanding concepts from a variety of quantitative-based and problem-solving subject areas – mathematical fundamentals, algebra, calculus, proofs, linear algebra, financial math, probability and statistics, economics, computer coding, etc.

Our drop-in sessions provide an informal peer-to-peer learning environment. No appointment is needed.
