Work on your goals for reading and writing with a CLC tutor! 

Students meet individually with a tutor for 45 minute sessions. During their first meetings, students complete assessments and establish a literacy goal. Tutors use students’ assessments, interests, and goals to guide research-based, developmentally appropriate literacy instruction. Activities might include: word chains, word ladders, phonics instruction, reader’s theater, riddles, jokes, assisted reading, and writing activities.

  • Who: Students in grades K-12
  • Where: UNH Community Literacy Center, Murkland Hall, Room G14 or online
  • When: Tuesdays and/or Thursdays, September 29-December 1. No tutoring on November 3 or from November 23-27. 
  • Times Available: 3:30-4:15pm, 4:30-5:15pm, 5:30-6:15pm, 6:30-7:15pm

New students may register at any time while registration is open, but all slots are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. Register early for the greatest time/day selection.

Schedule preferences are asked as part of the CampDoc process (explained below). Once the registration questions are complete, the Community Literacy Center will make initial contact via email to pair the student with an instructor and finalize the schedule prior to the Start Date indicated on the chart below. This initial contact will typically take place within 7 business days of CampDoc completion, and it takes about two weeks between registration and the first tutoring meeting. Tutoring cannot be scheduled until the participant's CampDoc profile is 100% complete. 

Participants purchase multi-session punch-cards. To retain a tutoring spot, a new punch-card must be purchased prior to completion of the current punch-card. If a participant is regularly attending tutoring, punch-cards do not expire between semesters. If a participant is not regularly attending tutoring (i.e. missed 3 or more meetings in a row), the punch-card expires at the end of a semester.

Please note that while the 6-session punch cards have letter indicators, you do not have to have purchased punch card "A" to purchase punch card "B" and so on. These letters are purely for clarity on our end.

Click the '+' on your desired registration block(s) to enroll. Review the Online Registration Instructions before enrolling for the best outcome. This includes instructions for creating a Family or Student/Individual account.

Family Accounts are recommended for enrolling multiple children from one family in any UNH Youth Program. If you already have an account in our system, you will be asked to log into either a Family or Student Account after adding the program to your shopping cart. Be sure to use the username and password for the type of account you wish to log into. We recommend attempting to log into the Student or Family account before enrollment opens as this will minimize difficulty and time while enrolling. Email youth.programs@unh.edu if you require assistance recovering your account information. Do not create a new account if you have one already.

If you don't have an account already, you can set up an account at any time, even before you begin the registration process. If creating a student account, the account profile should be in the name of the participating student, but the email should be that of a parent/guardian. Review the Online Registration Instructions before creating a new account.

Payments are made online at the time of registration. Accepted forms of payment for youth programs are VISA, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover. Paper checks are accepted only under very limited circumstances (ex: from a school or organization). We do not accept cash payments or e-checks and we cannot take payments over the phone. 

A participant cannot attend a youth program unless they are paid in full. Any participant with an unpaid balance may be locked from future enrollment in any youth program until the balance is paid.

Academic Year Youth Programs

In addition to the program fees, participants in academic year youth programs are subject to a non-refundable $5 registration fee once per student per semester at checkout. This fee supports use of our supplemental registration software.

Refund Procedures

Refund procedures are set by the department running the program. The procedures will be stated on the program webpage. If the session is canceled by UNH before the session start date, a full refund will be issued.

CampDoc is the platform for UNH youth programs to collect registration and health information for participating students.

Within a few days of registering, you will receive an email from "University of New Hampshire via CampDoc" at the address provided during registration prompting completion of the participating student's CampDoc Profile. Families who have participated in a youth program previously will likely already have a CampDoc account. Once you receive this email, a parent/guardian will need to log into the student's account to complete all required questions for the current enrollment(s). Completing the profile early gives UNH staff ample time to finalize program arrangements and provide any necessary follow-up.

A student cannot attend a youth program until their CampDoc Profile is 100% complete. The due date for completing the profile is indicated in both the CampDoc email and while completing the registration questions. If the profile is not complete by that date, the student may be dropped from the program.

For more information, visit our CampDoc page.

Arrival/Drop-off: Please arrive 5-10 minutes early to programming so that programming can start on time. Children in grades four and below must be dropped off by an adult.

Late Arrivals: If your child arrives late, please make sure to check your child in face-to-face with a CLC staff member.

Dismissal: All minors must be dismissed to an authorized adult. Please make sure all authorized adults know to have a picture ID for pick-up. The default place for CLC pick-up is Murkland Hall, Room G14. If you need a different pick-up location, contact the organizer of your child’s program.

The UNH Community Literacy Center is located in Murkland Hall, Room G14, 15 Library Way, Durham NH.
