Consulting
If you believe your project will require significant statistical support, we recommend submitting a consulting request form. An online form can be submitted using the button below. If you are not sure how much support is required, we recommend starting off with a free advising session listed below. Our initial consultation session is free and allows us to determine if our expertise is a good match. Depending on the nature and duration of the work, we may charge a fee for support. Our standard rates are listed here. The request form is open year-round but initial consultations are generally not available May-August.

Free Virtual Advising
We offer free virtual 30 minute advising sessions for Rutgers community members who have questions that can be answered within a single session. In-person meetings are available by request. Individuals are welcome to book multiple available sessions, but are limited to at most one session a week. Virtual appointments are available only during the academic calendar and must be booked at least three days in advance.
Nonaffiliated Institutions
We do not offer free services to individuals or institutions unaffiliated with Rutgers. However, we accept paid consultation projects from outside institutions that are particularly well suited for our department. Fees are determined on an ad-hoc basis and are higher than what we charge Rutgers affiliated members. If you think we would be a good fit for your project, please send an inquiry to:
