Counsellors For Indigenous Students

Academic Counselling

Our Counsellors are available to assist potential students and current students make academic related decisions. Maureen and Tammy are able to provide information on programs within the College and help students develop an academic plan. Students can also benefit from student success strategy sessions that can be offered individually and in groups. Topics range from study skills, time management, stress management, test preparation, note taking and learning styles.

"My overall experience at Sault College was the best life experience I could have dreamed of… the faculty and staff were friendly and helpful; the smaller class sizes created a warm and open learning environment, and the fast-paced atmosphere gave way to a large spirited yet small campus feel."
