Quantitative Support

Quantitative Support provides free mathematics and statistics support to undergraduate and graduate students at American University. Tutors will help students learn course concepts, develop study strategies, complete practice exercises, and prepare for exams. Quantitative Support comprises two core services: the Math & Stats Lab and Statistical Software Support.

Math & Stats Lab
