To support students as they experience their post-secondary educational journey at the University of Windsor, we have created JumpStart, a program intended to provide resources, support, and strategies to help you succeed!
JumpStart will:
- give you practical academic strategies to succeed
- familiarize you with campus and it's resources
- connect you with other students in first year
- help you navigate your school community
The Student Success & Leadership Centre runs drop-in JumpStart sessions at the beginning of each semester. Check back shortly to see our updated schedule!
In our asynchronous eBook, we have created six modules that you can explore at your own pace throughout your first year of University. These modules are inspired by Dr. Diana Brecher's and Dr. Deena Kara Shaffer's Thriving in Action program at Toronto Metropolitan University and the Bounce Back program at the University of Windsor.
eBook Information and Access
Below, you will find information about what each of the six asynchronous modules contain and the link to the eBook that you can access at anytime.
