We are here for you, and together we will persist and thrive.

Welcome to the Rinella Learning Center! We are pleased to provide you with information about our programs and services.

We offer learning assessments, academic counseling and coaching, academic interventions, a study strategies course, a workshop series on effective study strategies, individual and group tutoring in high-demand subjects, Supplemental Instruction, and enrichment programming for targeted populations like the Scholastic Enhancement Program and the Access Fellows Program.

In addition, the Rinella Learning Center serves as a scholarly pre-professional experience for undergraduate tutors, Supplemental Instruction leaders, Undergraduate Associates and graduate student employees. We also house the university's testing center, designed to assist faculty in meeting their obligations to provide testing accommodations for students with documented disabilities.

Our Mission

The mission of the Bernard B. Rinella, Jr. Learning Center is to help students reach their individual academic goals by empowering them with skills and strategies needed to be independent and successful learners and to provide academic support through intentionally designed services and programs.

Our Motto

"We meet the students where they are and go where they take us."
