Academic Peer Advisors

Trinity College’s Academic Peer Advisors are upper-year students who are available to all Trinity students, both residents and non-residents, for consultations on your academic studies throughout your time here.

As upper-year Trinity College students, Academic Peer Advisors have taken the very courses you’re enrolled in right now.  They’ve been exactly where you are, and they remember what it was like.  Academic Peer Advisors provide unofficial advice and assistance in the selection of courses and programs (for the final word, please do contact the Office of the Registrar at trinity.registrar@utoronto.ca). If you are studying a discipline for which there is no Academic Don, or if you are just looking for good advice from people who have been through it before, talk to an Academic Peer Advisor. Academic Peer Advisors also work to provide academic programming at the college, in collaboration with the Office of the Registrar, the Office of the Dean of Students, the Academic Dons, and the Community Advisors!
