This study investigated the influence of tutoring on the entry, retention, and graduation of students at a national university in Peru. Through a quantitative approach, it analyzes how tutoring affects these key stages, using data from 223 students. The results show a positive valuation of tutoring, significantly correlated with better retention and academic success rates. The research underlines the importance of personalized tutoring in improving student performance and well-being, highlighting its role in adaptation and motivation during university life. It also suggests the need for policies to ensure the quality and consistency of these interventions. This work not only adds to the existing literature by detailing the impact of tutoring in a Peruvian context, but also guides universities in formulating more effective programs to support students, potentially transforming the student support structure in educational institutions.
