Workshops on formatting papers with Microsoft Word, conducting research on the Internet, and other topics will be held. In the center, faculty and Student Ambassadors will be available for tutoring in specific subjects. Free books for recreational reading are also available in the Student Success Center.

The initial hours of the center are the following:
