Free Study Assistance
Tri-Beta tutoring:
The Tri-Beta Biology Study Sessions offer free weekly support to students in the Introductory Biology series (BIOL 180, 200, & 220), GENOME 371, and BIOLOGY 100. Each week, peer tutors are available for group or one-on-one assistance with student-driven questions & topics. The program is designed to assist students in their studies and to introduce them to the resources available to undergraduates in the Department of Biology. Study sessions begin the second week of each quarter and are held in Hitchcock 312. The sessions run through the last day of instruction.

CLUE sessions:
Late night tutoring in Mary Gates Hall. Writing assistance also available.

The Biology Study Area (BSA)
The BSA serves as a hub for both students and faculty in the Biological Sciences at the UW. Students study individually and in groups, get answers to biology- and computer-related questions, and complete course-related work on their own computers or the department's.

Instructional Center, Office of Minority Affairs
The academic arm of the Office of Minority Affairs (OMA) Educational Opportunity Program, the Instructional Center (IC), serves students that are affiliates of the OMA. The front desk is where students request to use the Center for tutoring, other instruction, or computer lab usage. All students using the Instructional Center must have a scan card; this card is issued through the OMA Counseling Center, or OMA affiliates can come to the IC and sign up for a card. Non-EOP students will be issued a card upon approval of their Referral Form.
