Be Prepared for University
Research shows that students make successful transitions to university when they have
the information they need; the academic skills
for university level work and feel connected to
their place of study.
Join us for Moving Forward to give yourself
the best possible start for university. You will
meet other students who can talk about what
they learned; explore how adaptive technology
and learning strategies can help you succeed.
Being on campus before school starts can
help you get your bearings.
If you have a disability that is not ADHD or
a learning disability and are interested in participating please contact Accessibility
Services regarding available space.
