WORD Studio Policy on GenAI
Defining Generative AI
"GenAI" here indicates those large language models (LLMs) or generative AI programs like ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot, Claude, and similar text-generation tools.
Important Clarification: Writing assistance tools exist on a spectrum. The WORD Studio has long worked with students using grammar and spell-checking tools like Grammarly, MS Word Editor, and similar programs. We recognize that the line between "writing assistance" and "generative AI" continues to evolve.

Peer Tutoring
Your Academic Success Partner
Whether you're navigating your first semester or diving into advanced coursework, we're here to bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be academically. The Peer Tutoring Program isn't just about getting help—it's about genuine conversations with fellow students who've walked the same path and know what it takes to succeed.
