Academic Resource Center (ARC)

The Office of Academic Advising encourages you to get familiar with your campus resources. The Academic Resource Center is a great campus resource on the square. The new semester is almost upon us so you should check out the ARC website.

The New York University Academic Resource Center offers excellent services to the Traditional and Transfer undergraduate populations. Some of which include:
As a nursing student, you should feel free to communicate with the Office of Academic Advising and Learning Development if you are having an issue. We work very closely with the ARC and will be able to make a referral if needed. 

Feel free to contact nursingadvising@nyu.edu for additional questions or concerns.

Undergrads: Tackle Writer's Block!

Throughout your undergraduate career you will write thousands of pages! Professors expect proper grammar, sentence structure, organized thoughts, proper punctuation, and a strong thesis statement among other things. So what can you do to improve your writing skills? Utilize one of the many FREE writing resources available at the University:

NYU Writing Center - Work with writing consultants at every stage of the writing process. But keep in mind:  the consultants at the writing center are not proofreaders, editors, ghostwriters, or graders of your paper. If you need help with sentence structure and grammar, they will address those rules with you. Come prepared with copies of your papers and information on assignments. The more prepared you are the more you will get out of the session. To make an appointment, click here.

University Learning Center - The CAS Learning Center offers free peer tutoring for Writing the Essay. Click here for more information. 

Is English your second language? The American Language Institute (ALI) through SCPS is a great resource providing English language instruction and evaluation. Click here for more information.

Proofreading Clinics - Writing involves strong proofreading skills too! Attend one of these free sessions to learn valuable proofreading strategies. Students are expected to bring a draft of their own writing. Tuesday's, 5pm ULC @UHALL. 

Don't be shy! Tackle that writer's block, brush up on your writing skills, or learn more about your writing style by using one of these services. You won't just need these skills during your undergraduate career but during your career as a health care professional too!

Best of luck writing all those papers this semester!
