Modes of Assistance

The SCS provides two modes of on-demand assistance for UConn faculty, students and staff; walk-in and online.

• Free walk-in services are our most popular offering intended for quick questions about grant applications, journal articles, Ph.D. dissertations, M.S. theses, and undergraduate research projects. Our current schedule is available on the walk-in schedule page.
• Free Online help allows users to submit question and documents online. Questions are usually addressed within 24 hours but may take up to 3 business days if an area expert is needed. Use the submission tool to get assistance.

Please Note: this assistance is not intended for homework and is more geared to data analysis rather than specific statistical software usage.

Clients may be referred to the SCS from a regularly scheduled consulting appointment. The SCS accepts projects from clients or researchers.
