Core Review Sessions

Core Review is an academic assistance program offered by CASA that provides peer-led academic support for all students enrolled in Core classes in Calculus, Chemistry, and Physics! This support is led by Core Review Facilitators: Current Mines students that previously took the course they are supporting and did very well – now, they want to help make sure YOU do the same. Our Facilitators support students by offering weekly in-person Office Hours and Core Review Sessions before exams and during key points of the semester.

This is where you can view the most up-to-date schedules, meet the Facilitators, find helpful resources, and learn more about how we support students! This is also where we will post important announcements.

Note: This is a separate Canvas page from the ones you have for your actual classes.
