Student Advising at Seneca

Your Student Adviser

As a Seneca Polytechnic student, you have a dedicated student adviser for your program. Your student adviser is here to ensure that you have access to the support and resources available at Seneca and answer any program-specific questions (e.g. program requirements, course schedules, academic status and policies) that you have to help you move forward in your program successfully. 

Student Advisers proactively engage with students identified as needing support. 

Your student adviser can assist you with:

• Course pre-requisites/co-requisites and graduation requirements
• Academic status, policies, and procedures
• Educational planning to help you reach your academic goals
• Referrals to specific service areas on-campus to help you succeed
• General program-related questions
