SERVICES OFFERED BY THE SCHOOL
CENTRE FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS
The centre is open to all first-year students at the Faculty of
Science. The coordinator, Charles Wolfe, helps students make the
transition from high school to university. He advises students on
effective learning strategies and encourages them when they face
academic problems or other challenges.
Even though this service targets first-year science students, Mr.
Wolfe always has time for upper class science students who may
need his experience.
The centre for academic success is located in MacDonald Hall,
Room 324 and is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday to
Thursday.
MATH DROP IN CENTRE
If students are having difficulty succeeding in first-year math
courses, the Math Drop-in Centre is one of the many helpful free
services available.
It is a classroom, staffed by one or more consultants who can
answer mathematics questions. To get the full benefit of the centre,
it is recommended to always come prepared with specific
questions. The centre is located in Room B-3, 585 King Edward
Ave. (KED). It is open Monday to Thursday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
and Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Special sessions are offered during the study period of each
session.
