Study Skills

In keeping with our mission to foster independent learning and transferable skills, the ULC provides support for students seeking to strengthen their academic skills. This support is offered individually and can focus on any relevant issue identified by the student or through a diagnostic inventory. Study skills assistance is free and available to any UNCW student at any level.

"Never regard study as a duty,
but as the enviable opportunity to learn."
--Albert Einstein

Study Skills Consultations
