Learning Commons Peer Tutoring Policies

Missed Classes & Assignments

Tutors are not substitutes for professors. Tutoring is not a substitute for attending class, taking notes, completing homework, studying and seeking help when necessary.  

You cannot make a tutoring appointment to learn material you missed due to a class absence. 

If you miss class, it’s your responsibility to review any missed material and attend your professor’s office hours to ask questions and seek clarification on the content. 

Tutors have the right to cancel an appointment if you have not reviewed missed material on your own and with your professor. 

Cancellations & No-shows

Cancellations: We accept cancellations up to one hour before your scheduled session. If you don’t plan on attending an appointment you booked, please cancel as soon as possible to allow other students to use the open session. If you cancel within the hour of your appointment, you will get a notification that of a no-show cancellation. This will count toward your overall no-shows and may result in loss of access to our services.

No-shows: If you don’t arrive within 15 minutes of your scheduled appointment time, you’ll be considered a no-show and your session will be forfeited. After three or more no-shows, you may lose access to Peer Tutoring services for the rest of the semester. 

Plagiarism

Tutors work under the assumption that the work you bring to a session is your own work. Tutors who suspect plagiarism will discuss citation rules with you and may report concerns, as needed. 

Tutors are not responsible for the work you submit. For more information on plagiarism, view UAlbany’s Academic Integrity Policy

Remediation

If you need help with a course for which we don’t offer tutoring, or if you’re in danger of failing a course, you should use multiple strategies to remediate the situation: 

  • Contact your professor. 
  • Attend all class sessions. 
  • Find a study partner.
  • Meet with your Teaching Assistant (TA), if applicable. 
  • Meet with your Academic Advisor
  • Complete all course assignments. 
  • Study independently. 
Student Conduct

Students are expected to adhere to University Tutoring’s policies and the University’s student code of conduct, Community Rights & Responsibilities

Students are also expected to behave in a professional and respectful manner.  

Students who do not meet these expectations may lose access to Peer Tutoring’s services.
