Beyond the Learning Center: Reaching the 53% Who’ve Never Asked for Help
More than half of college students—an estimated 53%—have never accessed any form of academic support on their campus. It’s a staggering figure, not because it reflects a lack of need, but because it highlights how much opportunity exists to better serve today’s diverse learners. Learning centers remain a vital hub for academic support, yet their capacity is often shaped by hours, staffing, or space. That can leave many students without the help they need—not due to a lack of effort, but due to limited reach.
