The Native American Program is dedicated to the support of student academic, cultural, and social success and wellbeing through a combination of advising, tutoring, programming, and more.
The NAP partners with several campus resources in order for students to be optimally supported. The resources include the Academic Skills Center, Writing Center, Dartmouth Emerging Engineers, and the Teaching Science Fellows.
In addition, the NAP offers peer-to-peer tutoring to support the academic wellbeing of Native and Indigenous Students. Peer tutors offer remote sessions with a combination of drop-in hours and one-on-one tutoring.
Students are encouraged to schedule advising meetings with the NAP Director and their undergraduate dean to ensure their concerns and/or areas of need are met!
Students can schedule advising meetings to discuss academic concerns and personal matters that affect their wellbeing. We connect students with the appropriate campus resources and offices while also guiding students through the process to ensure that they are supported and that their concerns are addressed.

K'owa (Hello), my name is Emma Tsosie and I'm a '25 from Santa Fe, NM. I belong to Picuris Pueblo, and I am also Diné. I am excited to be a NAP Peer Tutor this year because I love learning about how people write, the many classes that NADs are taking, and generally more about the community! I offer tutoring for writing (essays, application/cover letters, etc.) from the brainstorming of ideas to the polishing of a final draft.
Each term, the NAP hosts workshops and info sessions that support student growth and academic well-being. Information for these sessions is found in the NAP Weekly Newsletter and posted in the NAP Student Lounge.
