Course Selection

The Colleges at Trent help students to learn how to prepare for University. Our Academic Advising team has created a webpage to help you learn how to register for courses /advising/online-resources/course-selection-registration. 

For a step-by-step tutorial on how to use the course registration system on myTrent, please review some of the Video Tutorials on this page, and check out the recording for the Trent Advantage Live Stream on Course Registration

If you are a new student looking for help with course selection and registration, you can also call the academic advising phone line (705-748-1011 ext. 7333) for help from our College Ambassadors!

Parent & Supporters Information

Parents and supporters of new students are invited to join Parent and Supporter Orientation with a student support specialist from the University. Parents and Supporters of new students will receive practical advice on supporting their student—both before and after they arrive on campus, a quick reference guide to the services and supports available to Trent students, and reassuring answers to the questions and concerns that are most likely to be on their mind. If you come across a parent who is interested in this session, a link to register for the webinar can be found here:

Not sure where your student should turn for help with a particular problem? At our Peterborough campus, the college office for their college is a great place to start. Our friendly and helpful college office staff will either help your student to resolve the problem directly or point them in the direction of someone else who can help.

Contacts for each college office.
