As mid-terms and reading week are approaching, instructors may be aware of students in their classes who are struggling academically (non-attendance, low test and assignment scores) and are in need of assistance.
As part of supporting student development, Student Affairs welcomes referrals of these students to Student Advisement, located within The Centre for Student Success at each campus. Early intervention makes it easier for students to make changes that can have a positive impact on their academic progress.
Student Advisors are developmental advising specialists who work with students to:
- Investigate why they are experiencing difficulties.
- Identify underlying issues that may be related to life outside of school.
- Discuss strategies to improve learning, and provide referral to additional campus resources when required.
- Explore factors that students will need to consider in their future planning.
- Work with students to develop step-by-step success plans for them to follow.
The Centres for Student Success are open Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. and are at the following locations:
- Davis – Room B230, (ext. 5400)
- HMC – Room A247, (ext. 2528)
- Trafalgar – Room B104, (ext. 2557)
