Our academic advisors are here to provide admitted students with academic guidance. From exploring program options to planning for university transfers to specifics like registration for courses, we can help you with a range of topics. Drop-ins are quick, 5-10 minute sessions designed for brief questions. Booked appointments are for longer conversations and are typically 20 minutes long. Please see below for some topic examples of each:

Drop-ins Appointments
  • understanding prerequisites and course attributes
  • information on diagnostic tests (LET/MDT/PDT)
  • preparing for graduation
  • academic probation/suspension
  • academic resource referrals
  • creating realistic plans to achieve your academic goals
  • understanding how credits transfer between programs
  • planning for university transfer 
  • understanding academic policies
  • course planning 

Academic advisors are available through in-person drop-in, virtual drop-in, and booked appointments to answer your questions. Please see the table below for our drop-in schedule. Drop-in advising is first-come/first-served (a Langara ID number is required).   Note: Newly-admitted students are required to attend a Registration 101 workshop before individual advising.
