Tutee Agreement

This is the tutee agreement webform for students who have requested tutoring with the CC/SEAS Tutoring Service.

If you have requested tutoring through your advising dean, please complete this webform as soon as possible. Students will not be assigned to a tutor until this webform has been completed.

To find out about other academic resources on campus, please visit the Center for Student Advising website or speak with your CSA advising dean. To request tutoring, please make an appointment with your Advising Dean. 

If at any point you have concerns regarding your tutor or tutoring assignment, please contact Tutoring Program Coordinator Tara Maguire at tm2703@columbia.edu.

Please note that the more availability you indicate, the more likely we will be able to fulfill your request in a timely manner.

I understand that as a tutee it is my responsibility to:


  • Respond to emails regarding my tutoring assignment in a timely manner.
  • Attend all scheduled tutorial sessions and keep the tutor informed of all coursework.
  • Come to each tutoring session prepared:
    • Come with specific questions for my tutor.
    • Bring all relevant course materials (textbook, lecture notes, syllabus, etc.)
  • Arrive on time and ready to start on schedule.
  • Notify the tutor as soon as possible if I am unable to attend a tutoring session.
  • Notify the tutoring program coordinator as soon as possible if I am discontinuing tutoring or have dropped the course.
  • Complete an evaluation form at the end of the semester.
  • Understand that tutoring sessions are not to be used for going over assigned homework problems, since that would be a violation of academic integrity guidelines and standards. Tutors are aware of this policy and will report any academic integrity issues to the Center for Student Advising.

  • Please note that tutoring is a semester-long commitment and tutees are expected to attend their two-hour tutoring session every week. If a tutee has more than two unexcused absences, s/he will lose his or her seat in the group to make room for other students. This policy will be strictly enforced.
