PAC (Peer Academic Coaching)

PAC (Peer Academic Coaching)

Peer Academic Coaching (PAC) consists of one-on-one academic coaching and strategy building for gateway STEM courses. Students are paired with peer coaches who have successfully navigated the course and who are trained in helping others to build and implement study strategies for STEM courses.

While P2L (Peer Led Learning) is beneficial for most students in  STEM courses, PAC is recommended for students who have tried P2L and need additional support.

PAC supports classes in BIO, CHEM, MATH, PHYS, APMA, and STAT. See the full list of the courses supported. 

If you need any assistance finding support for a science, math or engineering class please email us at [email protected].
