The Center for Academic Success & Tutoring (CAST) at Farmingdale State College provides high-quality tutoring and academic support services. Our services are free for all registered students currently enrolled in courses.
Peer and professional tutors are enthusiastic and trained to work with all students. We help students in a variety of ways whether reviewing for an important exam, talking through a difficult problem, revisiting earlier concepts, or listening to ideas. Our sessions start as conversations, so that we can breakdown concepts in a way that makes sense to you.
