Student support meeting experience

What to expect at your student support meeting

We understand that meeting new people in support roles or navigating new locations can make you feel nervous and uncertain. We want to make sure you have the information you need to feel confident about your meeting with a Student Support Coordinator.

 

Meeting format options

You can connect with your Student Support Coordinator:

  • in person,
  • virtually,
  • by phone,
  • or in some cases communicate only via email.

If you require additional considerations or options, please discuss them with your Student Support Coordinator.

 

Virtual meetings

For virtual meetings, we will be using Microsoft Teams and a meeting link will be sent to you by email. You do not need a Teams account to join our meeting. You can choose to have your camera on or off; it’s your choice.

 

How to find the Student Support Centre

 

The Student Support Centre is located within Student Services on the second floor of Building B on the Abbotsford campus, in room 214.

See the Abbotsford campus map.

 

Student Support Centre and Student Services

The Student Support Centre is located inside Student Services where you can also find Counselling Services, the Centre for Accessibility services, and Financial Aid and Awards.

When you arrive at Student Services, check in with the front desk staff; they will assist you when you arrive and let your Student Support Coordinator know you have arrived.

 

 

In-person meeting spaces

Each of our offices is equipped with chairs with and without armrests, a small table, and some have windows on the back wall with blinds that keep the space private. When we meet, the door will be closed and not locked.

 

Accessibility accommodations

We are located on the second floor of Building B in room 214 with an accessible entrance into the space. Each of our offices is equipped with chairs with and without armrests and a small table.

We want to hear how we can make your meeting more comfortable. Here are some examples of what has been requested in the past:

  • Meeting at the entrance to the building
  • Meeting at a different location or building on campus
  • Bringing an interpreter or support person
  • Meeting at a different campus
