Online Tutoring

Husson Online provides free online tutoring to all online students through the Learning Center. The Learning Center is staffed by both faculty and student tutors. Student Tutors in the center are hired based on their mastery of the subject matter as certified by Husson faculty, and are required to carry a minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA. These tutors are current Husson students who have completed courses with excellent grades and have a strong ability to communicate this knowledge to their peers.
You can learn more about free online tutoring through your Canvas courses.

Mental Health Support

Husson Online provides students with free mental health support through its partnership with The Virtual Care Group. Through this telehealth service, students have 24/7/365 virtual access to experienced crisis counselors and can meet with licensed therapists by appointment. Students can continue meeting with the same counselor or therapist if they choose for continuity of care. These providers can be accessed from anywhere and from any type of device, including smart phones, regular phones, tablets, desktop computers and laptop computers. Support is also available in over 250 languages, including English, Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese and ASL.
