Academic Advising

​Undergraduate students who wish to plan their programs or who need advice on any academic matter should consult an Academic Advisor. This may include, but is not limited to: planning for degrees/majors, choosing courses, deciding on a major or minor, clarifying academic procedures or regulations, determining academic standing, experiencing academic difficulty, utilizing college advanced standing or university transfer credits, requesting a course overload, obtaining a letter of permission to take courses from another university (on-campus or through distance education), planning around extended medical absences, planning program/courses for an international exchange, planning for graduate or professional programs, planning for a second degree, waiving of program requirements/academic regulations through academic appeal/petition.

Academic Advisors are available year-round. Appointments may be made through the Academic Services Office (A207), by contacting our secretary at (705) 474-3461, extension 4358, or through our website. Drop-in hours are available during the fall/winter sessions and residence advising is also available at certain times of the year. Academic Advisors are also available monthly at the Muskoka campus and in the Office of Aboriginal Initiatives. Please check with our office for details.

Students in the consecutive education program who need advice on any academic matter should consult with the Office of the Dean of Education.

Students in the Native Classroom Assistant Diploma Program, the Native Special Education Assistant Program, the Teacher of Anishnaabemowin as a Second Language Program, or the Aboriginal Teacher Certification Program should consult with the course principal for academic advice.

Please note that students in all programs are also encouraged to consult with faculty members concerning course selections, particularly as it relates to planning for graduate studies.

Students are responsible for ensuring that the courses in which they register meet the degree requirements of their programs.
