Routine late cancellations of this nature may result in a temporary ban of services.

Note: Students will receive confirmation and reminder emails from The Learning Commons containing Zoom, cancellation, and iCal and Google Calendar links to the exact email address entered in the appointment form.

Tips!

  • Type your email address carefully! If your email address contains a typo when you sign up, you won't get the email. Double check before submitting!
  • Add your appointment to your Google calendar through the link provided in your confirmation email!
  • When in doubt, book more time than you think you need!
  • You may upload your rubric, directions, and assignment in advance when booking. Your tutor may or may not have time to review your work, but this expedites the process. 
  • Essays on Google Docs work better than Microsoft Word. You may share your doc with your tutor upon arrival and go over it together.
