Welcome to the Academic Enhancement Center!

10/12/26 Services Update!

URI Classes will meet on 10/12/26 but AEC peer-to-peer services and offices will be closed. Please reach out to aec@etal.uri.edu with any questions.

The Academic Enhancement Center (AEC) is here to support students throughout their college experience. We offer academic coaching, writing support, courses, and tutoring to help students develop effective learning strategies and meet the demands of their coursework.
“Tutoring has helped me stay on track in my course and also take accountability, especially when I felt stuck on a problem. Zack was very helpful with each question and showing the steps to get an answer. So thankful for all the help!”
