Support for Students who have been or are in extended society care

Transitioning to University can be made easier with the right support. These resources are specifically designed to help you reach your full potential, while providing you with the foundation, guidance and support you need.

Begin making personal connections on campus

Finding resources and support at Trent begins with connecting with one of Trent’s five colleges. Once you’re in a college, you’ll be speaking to the University’s Access and Inclusion Enrollment Advisor. They will collect your information, learn more about who you are and the support you need, and then connect you with relevant resources around campus.

For more information, contact: Christine Freeman-Roth & Lynn Yeboah

Make the best of the resources on campus to help you plan your degree and support your academics, personal support and for financial support.
