Student Success Handouts 

UFV Counselling, in cooperation with the University of Guelph Learning Services, has developed a series of handouts to help students make the most of their time at University. Don’t feel like you have to change all of your study habits at once. You are more likely to experience positive results by making one or two adjustments at a time. Many students start by making one realistic change and applying it to their most difficult course.
