Wake up and smell the coffee (or tea) at Trent U!
Hosted by Academic Advising and Academic Skills, Study Café is a weekly gathering for mature and transfer undergraduate students who seek community as well as dedicated time and space for academic development. Mature students are at least 21 years of age when starting at Trent. Mature students from every decade are welcome!
Join us for all 8 sessions, or drop by when it works for your schedule. Each week we'll meet over refreshments to discuss tested strategies for studying, test-taking, and preparing assignments. We'll also cover important info about course and degree planning, and introduce helpful services across campus.
