Designed to help students who are academically struggling. The curriculum includes such topics as motivation, goal-setting, time management, study skills, and exam preparation.

The Options Program

If you are a university student - past, present or future , and not sure what program of study best suits you, Options is designed with you in mind.  This program will help you explore your academic history, work and personal interests thus allowing you to begin university the following semester with a well thought out plan and goal.
