PAPER COPIES ONLY

When seeking assistance with coursework, students are reminded to bring along a printed copy of any documents they wish to review. The nature of the assistance provided by the Learning Centre and Peer Tutors, particularly writing assistance, requires tutors to see whole documents laid out in printed format. As well, LCD screens make it impossible to view images on the screen from angles other than straight-on. This leads to an unproductive tutorial. To make your session with a tutor more efficient, have your document typed in Times New Roman size 12 font, double spaced, and printed.

 

University Applications

Applying for a professional program? Need a letter of application, or autobiographical statement? Drop by and see the Literacy Instructional Assistant about writing university application letters. No appointment necessary, stop by at Room AS 235.
