Student Success Center
Located on the first floor of the Crabbe Library, the Student Success Center is designed to serve as a one-stop-shop where students can get assistance with an array of areas like course work, study skills, choosing a major, course registration, stress management and much more.
Tutoring & Mentoring
The Student Success Center takes student walk-ins. No appointment is necessary. To see when a tutor for a specific subject is available, go to our tutoring scheduler. If you cannot find your course or would like to request a virtual appointment, please email us at successcenter@eku.edu.
The Student Success Center offers the opportunity for students to connect with a mentor. EKU mentors are trained to help students navigate college and develop the life skills needed to thrive after college. The Student Success Center keeps a database of faculty, staff, and students who have chosen to help college students by serving as their mentor. Mentoring helps students be successful by providing them with a trusted person who can help them with the challenges that college life can present: how to study effectively, how to decide on a major or career, what organizations to join, how to balance personal life with school responsibilities, how to combat homesickness, etc.
The EKU Student Success Center is proud to hold two internationally recognized certifications from the College Reading and Learning Association (CRLA):
These certifications ensure that our tutors and peer mentors are trained to the highest professional standards, providing students with high-quality academic support and guidance.

This programming includes workshops designed to help EKU students with all elements of college life including study skills, time management, choosing a major, scholarship information, metacognition, and much more.
