Looking to boost your grades and master challenging course material? Then the PASS Program is your go-to resource! Course Mentors and PASS Leaders run group sessions designed to enhance your academic experience. It’s all about getting ahead while having fun.

Stay Updated! Keep an eye on your Brightspace class platform for updates, session details, and important announcements from your leaders. They’ve got you covered with all the info you need!

Why Attend? Sessions are voluntary, but they’re a fantastic opportunity to team up with your classmates. You’ll compare notes, dive into key concepts, refine your study strategies, and get a jump on exam prep. Sessions happen twice a week for 50 minutes, so you can fit them into your schedule easily.

Who Are the Course Mentors and PASS Leaders? These are top-notch students who’ve aced the course before. Handpicked by your professors and the Director of Student Learning Services, they’re pros at making complex material easy to grasp and engaging to learn.

When and Where? Sessions are scheduled at times that work best for most students in the course. You can drop in for one or attend them all—it’s up to you! Each session is unique, covering new material as the course progresses. Just bring your notes, textbook, and questions, and you’re set.
