University students.
Becoming a Tutor Students who wish to work as tutors need to have at least a 3.0 GPA, be eligible for work study, be recommended by a Trine University faculty member, and complete tutor training. The Trine University tutor training program is certified by the College Reading and Learning Association.
Requesting Academic Adjustments for Disabilities Students with disabilities who wish to request academic adjustments need to meet with the Director of Academic Support Services and provide recent documentation from an appropriate professional source concerning the disability. This documentation must contain a clear diagnosis, tell how the condition affects the student’s ability to function, explains what academic adjustments are needed, and show how the disability relates to these adjustments. Generally, the documentation should be less than three years old. If a student is eligible for academic adjustments, the student’s professors will be notified regarding the requested adjustments. A reasonable academic adjustment is based on documented individual needs, allows the most integrated experience possible, does not compromise the essential requirements of a course or program, does not pose a threat to person or public safety, does not impose undue financial or administrative burden, and is not of a personal nature. The exact nature of a disability will be kept confidential. The goal of Academic Support Services is to assist all students to become efficient, self-confident, and independent learners. For more information on student services, telephone 260-665-4853.
