Ryerson University Ultimate Student Guide Part One

I graduated from university and reflecting back, I wished I stepped outside of my comfort zone sooner. I was nervous and unsure who to ask for academic support. Learning from my experience, I created the ultimate student guide for Ryerson University.
I want to create a central hub with all the top university resources so please share if you found this guide helpful. I created student guides for the top Canadian university institutions.
There will be a part two so stay tuned.
