Center for Academic Success (CAS)

The CAS is committed to fostering a supportive environment for graduate students. Services are available for both on-site and online students. The center offers 45-minute individual and group sessions in which students can discuss grammar, style, structure, citations, and references, as well as other issues related to the writing process.
