University to put in test for learning experience (8)
I believe the answer is:
tutorial
'learning experience' is the definition.
(tuition session)
'university to put in test' is the wordplay.
'university' becomes 'U' (abbreviation as in UMass).
'put in' indicates putting letters inside.
'test' becomes 'trial' (synonyms).
'u'+'to'='uto'
'uto' placed inside 'trial' is 'TUTORIAL'.
'for' is the link.
(Other definitions for tutorial that I've seen before include "Study meeting" , "University study period" , "Teaching session for a small number of students" , "Session with a private instructor" , "University lesson" .)
