Center for Academic Enrichment

Build. Practice. Become.

Mission: The Center for Academic Enrichment (CAE) empowers Luther College students to build academic skills, practice self-advocacy, and become independent learners prepared for success in college and beyond.

We offer a range of free, student-centered resources—including academic coaching, peer tutoring, and skill-building workshops—grounded in research-based practices. 

File an SOS Referral

Submitting an SOS Referral is a way for faculty, staff, and students to notify the CAE when students are experiencing academic or personal difficulties. The referral will then be triaged and sent to appropriate departments creating a ‘circle of care’ for the student.

While the SOS Referral system is a retention strategy, it is required that professors only use this tool when all other means of contacting the student has been unsuccessful.

Some reasons to file an SOS Referral include when a student:

  • Frequently does not attend class
  • Lacks engagement
  • Earns a low grade and tutoring is recommended

File an SOS Referral

Then click “Send Alert”, search for the student, and send alert.
