Undergraduate Student Resources

The Department of Statistics and the broader university offer academic, funding and professional development resources to make the student experience as supportive and enjoyable as possible.

Peer Tutoring

Peer tutoring is offered free of charge for students enrolled in STAT 1051, 1053, 1111, 2112 and 2118. All tutoring sessions are held in Phillips Hall Room 741. No appointments are needed, and students can just walk-in for these tutoring sessions. Students can also make appointments for tutoring at Academic Commons.

Special Departmental Honors

Students who wish to earn Special Honors designation on their transcript must meet university and department requirements.

1. Meet GW’s general special honors requirements.
2. Graduate with a GPA of 3.7 in classes required for the statistics major.
3. Receive a nomination from at least two Statistics Department faculty members.
4. Complete either two graduate level courses in statistics or STAT 4195, which requires a research project. The research project must be approved by the supervising faculty member established during the STAT 4195 course and the departmental undergraduate committee.

Transferring Credits

While the Department of Statistics allows for transfer of credits, we do not waive General Education Curriculum (G-PAC) requirements for courses taken elsewhere. This is contrary to general Columbian College transfer credit policy. Otherwise, students should follow CCAS procedures to request transfer credit approval. The process is explained in detail on the CCAS Undergraduate Academic Advising website.
