What is Academic Advising?
Undergraduate academic advising at Trent is an on-going educational partnership between advisor and advisee that is dedicated to student learning, development, and success.
Academic Advisors help undergraduate students clarify their academic goals, decide which courses to take, understand academic regulations and degree requirements, connect with the services they need and, ultimately, take charge of their own education.
We hope that this website, in conjunction with regular advising appointments, will help you make the most of your undergraduate experience at Trent.
