Students seeking reasonable accommodations or support services while enrolled in a SCU Accelerated Sciences Course can do so through the Student Services Office (SSO) by following the two steps outlined below. We encourage you to register with the SSO as early as possible to allow sufficient time for the approval and notification process.

Step 2: Submit your complete request and schedule an appointment with the SSO.

Tutoring
We know that you’re here to fulfill a specific goal. In addition to support from your instructor, your tuition includes tutoring to support you in achieving the grades you need.
You can sign up for a tutor by contacting your instructor or the Accelerated Sciences department. In most cases, your tutor will work with your instructor to develop a tutoring strategy based on both your self-reported areas of weakness and your class performance. If you are willing to put in the time and make use of available resources, we will work with you to achieve your goals.
Graduate School Workshops
Take advantage of completing your science prerequisites at a health sciences university. Students in Accelerated Science classes are able to attend university workshops on topics like how to apply to graduate school in the health sciences and what it’s like being a graduate student in Physician Assistant/Nursing/Medical school. Students can also participate in talks and symposia given by healthcare experts at SCU.
