The Academic Center is a resource center for students, faculty, and staff. We offer writing assistance, subject-area tutoring, testing services, and information resources. We hire between 10 and 14 students every semester to work as writing or subject-area tutors and are always interested in receiving applications. Find out how to apply by visiting our website.

We offer face-to-face writing assistance at Victoria, Sugar Land, and Cinco Ranch, and it is also available online. After registering at WCOnline, students can make appointments for face-to-face tutoring and submit documents for online tutoring. Trained tutors review documents, make suggestions for revision, and discuss techniques for analyzing and revising writing. A library of articles written by writing tutors is available on our website.

In response to student or instructors’ requests, the Center also offers subject-area tutoring in mathematics, computer science, and biology during some semesters. We post what’s available each semester our website, so please stop by.

We also provide academic testing services in Victoria for UHV students (correspondence and practice TExES/ExCET exams) and on behalf of UHV faculty (makeup exams). A variety of standardized tests, e.g. the THEA Quick Test (formerly Quick TASP), TExES/ExCET, and Subject GRE, are also offered, and our website contains an up-to-date list of tests offered and appointment times, when applicable.
