Academic Commons and the Office for Student Success are using a new app to make it even easier for students to access peer tutoring programs and statistical consulting, and student success coaching. You can use this app, Penji, to access different "communities" on campus, allowing you to schedule appointments, attend drop-in hours or group sessions, and more.
*Penji is also available via our mobile app (iOS and Android). The same features are available online and on the mobile app.
