What is Supplemental Learning (SL)?

Supplemental Learning is a set of learning activities you can attend on your own to improve your college experience. You can work on improving your English or Math skills, or develop your learning potential by attending Study Skills activities.

Supplemental Learning activities have a variety of formats to meet your needs:

  • Workshops -- Presentations and activities led by faculty
  • Practice Jams -- Additional practice activities led by tutors
