If you miss眩wo or more appointments疳n a semester, a member of our team will reach out to you directly to check in with you and ensure any additional appointments you have scheduled are necessary.
Note that a missed appointment means that you did not cancel your appointment in advance and/or did not show up for your scheduled appointment. We track this and notify you when this happens twice because we want to make sure all students who want to come to tutoring have the opportunity to do so. Notifying us of a cancellation more than 24 hours in advance is important because it opens up that spot for another student. (Remember, appointments can ONLY be made more than 12 hours in advance存o if you wait to cancel, you also take away the option for another student to attend that appointment.)

What happens to my appointment if the university is closed (ex: snow day)?
If the university is closed for a snow day or other unplanned event, all tutoring appointments will be automatically cancelled. This will not be held against you. If you receive a message that you missed an appointment that should have been excused due to a university closure, dont be alarmed! We may not be able to update our system in time to prevent the automatic notice from being sent to you, but we will be checking to make sure you wont be inadvertently penalized.
