How to get started:
If you would like individual tutoring support, you can view available tutors and schedule individual tutoring appointments via your Cardinal Success Account by following the steps below:
- To schedule an appointment with Tutoring Services, log into your Cardinal Success Account.
- Once logged in, select the blue "Get Assistance" tab, located in the upper right-hand corner of your student home page.
- This will open the “Schedule Appointment” window
- Select “Academic Support” from the “Appointment type” drop-down menu

- If you have selected course-based tutoring, you will be prompted to select the course for which you want to schedule an appointment.
- You can now view available tutors and schedule your appointment.
If need assistance, have any questions about Tutoring Services, or would like to make a tutor request, please contact the Tutoring Services team at cua-tutoring@cua.edu.
Note: If you can't find your course, put in a general request on Cardinal Success by just clicking under “Other Options “ and then “Request Appointment Time.”
Cost:
Individual Tutoring is now available at no cost to all CUA students!
If we do not have an available tutor, we will begin recruiting immediately. This process may take several weeks. We encourage students to utilize our Drop-in Subject tutoring whenever possible.
Instructor referral:
Instructors may also refer students for tutoring by reaching out to Tutoring Services staff at cua-tutoring@cua.edu.
Please provide the following information with your request:
- Student's name
- Course information
- Any relevant contextual information that will aid in the process of connecting the student with support resources.
