Learning Consultations offer opportunities for undergraduate, graduate, and professional students to build and strengthen their study skills and strategies as they engage with Penn coursework and a variety of academic projects. Our learning specialists support you by addressing time and project management, organization, academic reading, research and writing, problem-solving, and exam preparation.
You can schedule 50-minute virtual or in-person meetings to discuss your study strategies and approaches to a variety of academic assignments and assessments. Access MyWeingartenCenter to schedule a Learning Consultation. If you select a virtual consultation, you will receive a Zoom meeting link in the appointment confirmation email.
Appointments are generally available Monday – Friday from 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. ET, but we may offer additional times in MyWeingartenCenter depending on the availability of our learning specialists.
Students are limited to scheduling one Learning Consultation per week. If an additional appointment is needed in that week, we ask that you speak with your learning specialist.
You are welcome to schedule follow-up consultations with the same learning specialist or a different one. Learning specialists are happy to work with you throughout your time at Penn.
There is no cost to Penn students for learning consultations.
Unfortunately, learning consultations are not available to students in online-only programs, but we encourage you to check out our Resources for Online Learning.
The Weingarten Center collaborates with key campus partners, such as the Graduate Center, Penn Libraries, and Penn First Plus, to offer drop-in consultations during the fall and spring semesters.
