SI-PASS (Peer Assisted Study Sessions)

SI-PASS sessions focus on using effective study techniques to master difficult course content, so you learn what to learn and how to learn at the same time. SI-PASS is free and available to all students enrolled in SI-PASS supported courses. SI-PASS is only offered during the fall and spring semesters.
