FIRST-YEAR SUPPORT COUNSELLING

Congratulations on starting your first year at Concordia!

Starting university can be both exciting and overwhelming. As you embark on this new journey, you may encounter challenges that can be more difficult to adapt to than you had hoped.

First-year support counselling is a safe and non-judgmental space for you to talk about your transition to university life and discuss strategies to help you make the most of your first year at Concordia. 

Access services

Eligibility

All students in their first year of studies at Concordia are eligible for first-year support counselling. This includes:

  • Undergraduate and graduate students
  • Transfer students from other universities and exchange students
  • Independent students (eligible during your time as an independent student, and for the first year once you're admitted into a program)

Eligibility begins when you confirm your offer of admission (and pay the $100 deposit) and continues until 12 months after you begin taking classes.

Note that counselling appointments are only available to students located in Quebec.

Things to keep in mind

  • You may cancel up to 24 hours before your appointment with the link in your confirmation email.
  • If you expect to be late for your appointment, please respond directly to your confirmation email to let the counsellor know.

If you are more than 20 minutes late, we may give your appointment to another student.
