Weingarten Center

Penn's Home for Academic Support & Disability Services

Academic Support offers opportunities for undergraduate, graduate, and professional students to build and strengthen their study skills and strategies as they engage with Penn coursework and a variety of academic projects. It includes Learning Consultations and Tutoring.

Learning Consultations provides professional instruction in university-relevant skills such as academic reading, writing, study strategies, and time management.
 

Tutoring offers Penn undergraduate students free, accessible, and convenient options to supplement their academic experience.

Disability Services works closely with students who self-identify with a disability, in order to ensure equal access to all University programs, activities and services. The University of Pennsylvania is committed to providing the same exceptional opportunities to all Penn students. Policies and procedures have been developed to provide students with as much independence as possible and to promote self-advocacy. We encourage you to learn more about our services on our website. You will find information about the services we provide as well as procedures for requesting accommodations. We also invite you to contact Disability Services to address your specific access needs as part of our collaborative process.
