Learning Lounge Guidelines

The Learning Lounge is for the development of your academic skills. You can stay as long as you need!

Please use the space to work independently, but anytime you stumble on a problem, raise a hand and an advisor will come and help.

Do not expect an advisor to sit with you for more than a few minutes.
Construct your question for the advisor before they come to help you.
Identify the specific help you need so the advisor can best support you.
Keep in mind that advisors are there to provide guidance and are not there to edit your work.

The Learning Lounge is a safe space. Please engage with staff and students respectfully.

Online: Studiosity

Studiosity is available online 24/7 throughout the year, even during semester breaks!

You are encouraged to make use of Studiosity's Writing Feedback and Connect Live services to ask questions and improve your work.
