Why Use Study Buddies?
To be academically successful, it's always better studying with others than alone.
Office Hours Don't Fit Everyone Everytime
Your schedule may not be compatible with the typically fixed office hours of your courses. You can easily find an alternate form of support which fits your schedule with a group of other students in the same courses as you.
Open Groups Beat Cold Approaches
Walking up to strangers in a 300-person lecture takes nerve. Clicking "Join" on an open group doesn't.
Every Section Isn't Equal
Some sections get more support than others. Study buddy groups connect students across sections, so everyone has easier access to those that "make it click."
Efficient Meeting Planning with Your Fellow Students
Once you join a study group, plan in person/online meetings with students in the same group through availability polls and chat messages. With the click of a button, send and store scheduled meetings inside of your Google Calendar.
It's a Conversation Starter
Asking someone to join your study group is an easy way to start a conversation. Many friendships start with a shared problem set.
