Through Niagara University’s Early Advantage Program, professors can refer students to the Office of Academic Support for academic support services. The purpose of the Early Advantage Program is to contact students who may not be doing as well academically as they could, and to help them find ways to make this semester as successful as possible.
Staff members of the Office of Academic Support make the initial contact with referred students and meet with them to talk about their experiences in their courses. Our office has a number of services available to students at no charge (tutoring, writing support, workshops), and many students each year find that our assistance even makes the difference between passing and failing a class. If needed, the staff can also connect students with other services on campus that will support them with additional issues that may be affecting their coursework.
Please be assured that the specific content of discussions will remain confidential between student and OAS/EAP staff.
