Peer-Assisted Study Sessions (PASS) are a student-facilitated academic support program designed to help you improve your academic performance and retention in specific courses. Click here to view our current PASS course offerings.
What makes PASS unique is our collaboration with faculty members to provide support in high demand courses. Faculty are involved in the recruitment process and select a team of peer tutors who have successfully completed the course with the same professor. The team of tutors meet weekly with the professor throughout the semester to discuss the course content and additional strategies to reinforce the information you are currently learning.
During PASS students will work with a team tutor and their classmates in a group setting to review course content, work on practice problems, and discuss ways to enhance their learning and study skills. The sessions are free, voluntary, and open to students that are enrolled in these courses. Students wishing to participate can log-on to tutortrac.ysu.edu to view the session times and schedule appointments for those that work best with their class schedule.
