Schedule an Appointment
Comps consultants offer limited appointment slots in addition to drop-in support. If you prefer a 1:1 appointment, check out the appointment calendar. If none are available or you would like a non-comps appointment, you can also Slack a specific tutor to arrange a time or email the QRC director to find a tutor that’s right for you.
