You can download ARC Faculty Recommendation form (for tutor) and ARC Professional Recommendation form (for Program Assistant).
2. First Interview – If you have both an application and a letter of recommendation on file, your application will be forwarded to a supervisor for that area. If there is an opening available, that supervisor may contact you to arrange a first interview with you.
3. Final Instructions – If you are selected, you will be given additional instructions to complete paperwork and training.

While there is no official cutoff date to apply, most Spring semester positions will be filled by November and Fall semester positions will be filled by April. Note that, the applications that are submitted before the deadline are given the priority. If there are no positions available, your application will be rolled over to the next semester. We receive far more applications than we have positions available. This is a competitive process, so please note that not everyone who meets minimum qualifications will be interviewed, and not everyone who is interviewed will be hired. If there are no paid positions available or you do not qualify to be a paid tutor, you may qualify to volunteer for 4 to 6 hours per week.
