Tutoring For students having academic difficulty, the University's Learning Center on the Morningside campus is the main referral source.
Tutors are available in writing, basic math and science, and other subjects.
These services are provided free to Columbia students. Students in need of tutoring in an area not offered by the Learning Center, e.g., Anatomy and Physiology, can make tutoring arrangements through the Office of Student Services. There is a fee for these services, determined by the student and tutor. The Student Health Service provides a comprehensive mental health care program. Appointments are scheduled immediately.
