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 & accounting, computer coding, and chemistry.

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

For spring term, we will be offering a combination of virtual and in-person help sessions.

The regular drop-in help session schedule is in effect from Monday May 11 until Thursday July 23; additional sessions will be scheduled during the spring term exam period.
