If you are a registered or prospective student, TUSGU will provide you with

  professional academic counseling services for free of charge. Our counselors are

  able to provide you with a comprehensive service to help you choose the right

  course before commencing your studies, provide additional support during your

  studies, and also help plan your next career move.

  We are here to support all your needs and help you achieve your educational,

  vocational and personal goals. Counseling is predominantly done on an

  individual basis, but also includes a significant amount of group work with

  students in such areas as study skills and career development.

  Counselors provide informative, supportive and confidential counseling in the

  following areas:

            •   Educational and career planning

            •   Student allowances, benefits and access to financial assistance

            •   Study skills and learning assistance

            •   Personal counseling. (We can arrange personal counseling with external

                professional counselors)

            •   Grievance and conflict resolution

            •   Stress management

            •   Support for students with a disability.

  Whatever age or level of education, your students may be experiencing doubt

  and confusion as to education plans/or choice of career.  Discussions with a

  counsellor and the use of tests can assist students in the sound exploration of

  educational and career possibilities.

  *  Academic-Related Difficulties

      Many things can interfere with academic success, including study problems,

      adjustment to college life, tension, and anxiety.  Counsellors are available to

      help your students achieve a better understanding of the source of such

      difficulties and explore a variety of solutions.

  *  Personal Problems

     Personal problems often seem difficult to handle alone and can interfere with

     school work.  Help with these problems is available by dropping in and talking

     to one of our professional counsellors.

  *  Study Skills Seminars

     Your students might feel they are in the right program but are not getting the

     results they should.  Seminars are offered every semester covering effective use

     of time, note taking, concentration, and other essential study skills.      

  *  Peer Tutoring

     The Student Tutoring Service is designed to help first year students who are

     experiencing difficulties in certain courses.  Students are matched with trained

     senior students for one-to-one tutoring.  Tutoring for more advanced courses

     may be available in certain subject areas.
