Academic Success Center
Our goal is to help students meet their goals and succeed inside and outside of the classroom. Students come to Bryn Athyn with different academic skill sets and needs and we offer a range of options to help them.
Our Academic Success Center offers tutoring in various areas, including the Math Center, the Writing Center, the Science Center, Study Hall, Research Support, and peer tutoring. All of these offerings are free, and are available to all students. Some are walk-in sessions, some require the student to book a session. See below for details. Note that these times vary each term.

Research Support—Walk in session

Library staff are available whenever the Library is open to help students with accessing the College’s electronic resources and search engines. Students can ask for help with research as needed at the front desk. The Library also has a Research Librarian, Ms. Andi Sibley, to answer questions and give a tutorial.
Peer tutoring
Peer tutoring is available for students in need of academic support. Through the program, students benefit from one-on-one coaching, while students who excel academically can get first-hand tutoring experience by helping their peers. Students can ask for support in any course they are having trouble with, and the peer tutor will help them by going over reading materials, helping them study for tests, or going over their notes with them. Any student who feels they are in need of extra support with a class should contact Mrs. Ann Buss, Director of Academic Support Center, at 215-510-0069. She can arrange one-on-one peer tutoring. She encourages students to ask for tutoring early on in the term, but we will do our best to help whenever a student asks.
