More about student support

What I liked the most about Suffolk is that they offer you a lot of things that help you other than just taking good classes. The workshops, the tutoring sessions, and also the programs they have that prepare you for your career – there are a lot of things students can use in the Center for Learning and Academic Services (CLAS).
