Be intentional about using your last exam to improve your learning by using a strategic post-exam learning tool. Bring your exam and use this time to work through your exam with our tool (you will not be asked to show your exam to anyone else). Or just drop by, meet other engineering students, and take what you think might be most helpful with you. We will provide food and some fun giveaways! 

We value your voice! After meeting with an academic advisor, you'll receive a brief survey allowing you to provide feedback on your advising experience. By taking just a few minutes to complete the three-question survey, your feedback will inform the College of Engineering & Applied Science as we strive for continuous improvement in academic advising services.

• Free Tutoring in the BOLD Center: BOLD tutoring services are free and available to all CU Engineering students. They offer in-person drop-in tutoring and appointment-based tutoring in calculus, physics, computer science and more.
