The Bachelor of Health Sciences program has six Academic Advisors who are trained to provide confidential academic support to students in need. If you’re looking for support with your degree plan, help finding academic resources, or just need some advice, our advisors are here to help. Further down this page, you will find recorded videos which provide an overview of what our academic advisors can assist you with, as well as further information about some of the most common topics that we receive questions about.
