LAKER Tutoring Program


Thank you for investing time and energy into your academic success!
 
LASC's Tutoring Program was created in order to provide Grand Valley student-athletes with the appropriate academic support services that cannot be addressed elsewhere on campus. For many of our student-athletes, the combination of their class, practice, and travel schedules, does not always afford them the opportunity to utilize GVSU's campus Tutoring Center or other academic success services on campus. Our Tutoring Program is here to support and provide the necessary resources to our student-athletes with such conflicts.
