CAPE

NJIT’s Center for Academic and Personal Enrichment, also known as CAPE, is located in the second floor of Kupfrian. CAPE’s main focus is to deliver a collaborative academic community that is beyond the classroom environment through personal and group tutoring, which assists students in achieving their academic goals. In addition to private tutoring, CAPE conducts meetings for time management, testing approaches and stress relieving. In addition to these services, this center also contains a computer lab which has Wi-Fi access which enables students to work on any online work. This center provides an atmosphere which helps the students to work on their writing. Another advantage of CAPE is that students can easily print their assignment once they have completed them, by utilizing the free printing services in the computer lab.
