Your Path to Academic Excellence
The Academic Center for Excellence (ACE) at SUNY Niagara provides students with the tools and support needed to achieve their academic goals.

How can ACE help you?
As a first step, we ask that you consult with your instructor(s) in regards to your coursework. Our instructors are committed to your success and know what is best for you to succeed. In addition, we encourage you to speak with your academic advisor. Advisors can provide you with academic advice particular to your degree or program throughout your career at SUNY Niagara.
Academic coaches are professional tutors that have obtained a degree in content-specific areas such as accounting, math, writing, science, and more! Coaches are also available to help you with time management and/or metacognitive learning strategies. You can make an appointment with a coach online or see if someone is available for a walk-in!
ACE offers two different means of online tutoring services:
The support staff within ACE can help you with any questions or concerns you may have. Our support staff can be located within ACE at our front log-in desk, in the back corner with academic support services, or within the office areas. Please do not hesitate to ask questions – we encourage it!
Student tutors provide one-on-one or group tutoring sessions based on specific course offerings here at SUNY Niagara. Head to the ACE webpage to view course offerings and the days/times that student tutors are available!
