Recommendation
If you got an A or A- in your class, ask your professor to fill out the recommendation form in the Admin portal or email Dr. Curty at ccurty@highpoint.edu to recommend you to be a tutor.
Meet with Dr. Curty
Dr. Curty is the head of tutoring and will be your boss as a tutor. This is like an informal interview where he just wants to get to know you and answer any questions you may have about tutoring.
Student Employment
You will need to go to the Student Employee office in Couch – Suite #136 to give them your identification. You will need a photo ID (HPU passport is fine) and either your birth certificate or social security card. Copies/pictures will not work!
