The UACS Stargazer
Tutoring Club
The Tutoring Club at University American College Skopje or Tutoring Assistance Student Club (TASC) is a platform designed from the students for students. The TASC is aimed at students who need assistance with their courses, who are lagging with their exams, or who are placed under a special learning regime with the possibility to learn and improve their grades, through learning from their colleagues.
Every UACS student who needs assistance with his/her courses can become a member of the Club. Afterwards, the student will be assigned a tutor (i.e. another student), who will work with him/her and help him/her master the specific course being tackled.
The tutors are UACS students who have a minimum grade of B- or GPA of 2.67 for the specific course, who have been recommended by a professor, and who are also willing to help their colleagues. Every tutor can earn from 2 to 6 ECTS credits for providing tutoring classes to other students.
The TACS is active during every academic year during the period of October to June.
We are encouraging every UACS student to become a member of the Tutoring Assistance Student Club and provide help to others who need it.
For more information, you can contact the Tutoring Assistance Student Club at: tutoring@uacs.edu.mk.

The Academic Advising Center (AAC)
The Academic Advising Center (AAC) coordinates college advising and gives support that provides students at every level with the resources, instruction, and academic support they need to succeed. At each step of a student’s college career, we have a network of academic advisers ready to assist students by helping them stay on an academic path. We can also connect students with opportunities for academic exploration within and beyond the traditional classroom setting.
What is Academic Advising(AA)?
Beyond all, Academic Advising (AA) is a relationship. Just as with any other relationship, it takes time to grow. The relationship intends to provide students with support for a superior education, attending to their intellectual growth and their development as adults committed to high ethical standards and full participation as leaders in their communities. AA utilizes various advising resources that encourage students to identify and pursue their academic interests and personal goals. From student admittance to graduation, our network of advisors guides students in discovering—and engaging with — all the curricular and co-curricular opportunities that SBEM offers.
What is the role of the academic advisor?
An academic advisor is here to help students with degree decisions, course selection, and many other academic decisions. That way, academic advisors can help students select courses that suit their needs and life circumstances. Further, the advisor is also available to discuss student life and struggles so he/she can get to know the student better.
