Where to Appointment-Based Tutoring sessions take place?
In-Person Appointments
All in-person tutoring appointments will be located in the SLC Main Tutoring Room (1720 Chem). Please arrive a few minutes before the start of your session to check in and meet your tutor.
Online Appointments
About 5 minutes before the start of your scheduled appointment, the SLC tutor you are meeting with will send you an email containing a Zoom link (please note this will come to your umich email).
Please Note: Appointments cancelled after midnight on the day of the appointment or students who are more than 15 minutes late will be marked as "no-shows." Students who are marked as a "no-show" two or more times during the same semester will be asked to meet with the Program Manager before they are permitted to continue meeting with a tutor.
