University of Guelph Ultimate Student Guide Part One
I remember when I was in university, I was overwhelmed by all the student emails and resources available. I was unsure who to ask for help and was afraid to ask upper year students for advice. After graduating from the University of Waterloo, I decided to create guides to help other students. It became my goal to create a central hub with the top university resources. I spent a lot of time researching all the top resources at U of G, so please share the University of Guelph student guide with others!
This is a two-part series so stay tuned for part two. The second part will include links to local housing, transportation, financial support, things to do in Guelph and more.
