Academic Advising

Friendly Champlain-St. Lambert Academic Advisors help students throughout their CEGEP careers, from preparing them for college to making sure they have completed the requirements to receive their diploma.

Worried about how to register, college regulations, life at CEGEP? No problem. Advisors hold Information Sessions in August to make sure that new students are feeling comfortable about all these things before they begin life at Champlain-St. Lambert.

While studying in the college, students consult Academic Advising for assistance in making all sorts of academic decisions. Sample questions Academic Advisors deal with include the following:

• What are the requirements for my program and how does my program work? What courses should I take in the next semester? Am I on track in my program? What happens if I get off-track? How can I catch up? What is offered at Summer School?
• I think I might want to change program. What should I do? Will the courses I've done in my current program count for me if I change?
• I'm having difficulty in a course. Can you help me?
• What are university requirements for the programs I'm interested in? Where are those programs available? Am I competitive for the program I want at university? What can I do to improve my chances? How do I make my application?
• I'm in a career program. Am I eligible for university?
• What strategies can I use to win scholarships for university?

Group information sessions on various topics are advertised in The Hub, the Champlain-St. Lambert newsletter. Champlain-St. Lambert students wanting individual advice should come to Academic Advising in the Registrar's Office or phone 450-672-7360, local 256, to make an appointment.

Academic Advisors can make a big, positive difference to students' lives. Don't hesitate to make use of the advising service.
