Stay on Track is a student success program offered for first- and second-year students, in all undergraduate faculties at Dalhousie.

You will be paired with a student success advisor who will work with you to identify your talents and strengths.

You will have at least three meetings with your advisor throughout the term, each one directed by your unique needs and goals. Appointments will range from 30 minutes to an hour. If you want to meet with your advisor more than three times, you are encouraged to do so! 

Registration is closed. 

Registration for the Fall 2022 term is closed. More information on Winter Term Registration coming soon!

If you would like to connect with an advisor, we encourage you to connect with an advisor in your program.
