Academic Support Center

Troy: Hart Hall Second Floor, 244-2272

Sage students represent a diverse range of academic, educational and developmental backgrounds. The Academic Support Center provides opportunities for students to enhance their academic skills and to achieve personal growth and development. Students are encouraged to become responsible, independent learners who are capable of achieving their fullest potential.

The Academic Support Center provides undergraduate students with opportunities to enhance academic skills through the provision of a comprehensive range of academic support services. Students may utilize individual and small group tutoring, learning labs and Writing Studios to receive tutorial support for most classes. Students are encouraged to apply for tutoring early in the semester to allow time for appropriate scheduling. Workshops are provided, which cover a range of topics including time-management, study skills, note-taking and test preparation. Students may also meet with an academic counselor to identify which services will most effectively address their needs.

Disabilities Services

Troy: Hart Hall, Second Floor, 244-6874

The Sage Colleges promote self advocacy for students with disabilities and facilitates a positive and adaptive learning environment for such students. Students seeking accommodations are required to present a recent (within the past three years of the current date or as prevailing scientific knowledge warrants) evaluation of their disability conducted by a licensed professional. It is imperative that upon admission, students requesting accommodations contact the Director of Disability Services in the Academic Support Center, with offices on the second floor of Hart Hall in Troy (244-6874) and on the third floor of the Library in Albany (292-8624).

The academic computing centers house computer classrooms where computer-based courses are taught and labs where students can work on assignments. The computing centers are open day, evening and weekend hours. MySage, the web-based email system and communication medium for The Sage Colleges, is available to all Sage community members (students, faculty, and administrators). The Sage Colleges MySage website is a dynamic application offering user-friendly page templates for easy content creation and modification and powerful functional elements such as interactive calendars, community collaboration tools, community-based announcements, file sharing, chat rooms, and personal productivity tools like task management, address book options, and email. MySage is accessible on the world wide web, either through dial-in to Sage or your Internet Service Provider (ISP). The MySage web address (URL) is http://prod.campuscruiser.com/sage. Each student of The Sage Colleges is issued a MySage account and password through which these services may be accessed. It is a violation of the Student Conduct Code to share your MySage password with anyone else. Students who lose or forget their account information or password can get a replacement by calling 244-4777.

MySage username and passwords, for new students, will be mailed to their home address. A similar pattern will be followed in the spring and summer.
