Math Support Services: E. H. Butler Library 147 | walk-ins welcome 

Writing Support Services: E.H. Butler Library 143 | walk-ins welcome and appointments through Navigate360 are highly encouraged 

Services started on Monday, February 2, 2026. Students needing writing help may visit Writing Support Services to learn how to make appointments. For all other courses, Find Your Tutor is a direct link for faculty, staff, and students to quickly find all the courses we currently offer tutoring for. The list gets updated on a regular basis, so please check back often. Based on need and subject tutored, virtual options may be available.   

Please encourage students to visit the Center in Butler Library, Suite 145, to get familiarized with our area and staff, and to complete an Academic Mentor (Tutor) Request Form if no Academic Mentor is listed for a particular course that they may need help with.  

Reach out to Abdi Hajikandi, Director of Academic Services, at hajikaa@buffalostate.edu if you have any questions or need to learn more about our services. We would be happy to visit your classes to talk about our services and how they could benefit your students.  As always, thank you for your assistance in referring students to utilize these important support services, and for recommending qualified Academic Mentors to work in the Academic Center for Excellence!
