Smith Library, the Academic Services Center provides assistance to students through a number of services.
Tutors are available in most subjects.
Any High Point University student is eligible to receive tutoring for any course free of charge. A tutoring session is generally for the purpose of reviewing difficult material and clarifying ideas, not an opportunity for the tutor to provide assistance on material to be marked for a grade. The tutor's role is to provide constructive feedback based on specific questions and goals brought to a tutoring session by the student.
