Our incoming students for Fall 2021 are already connecting with one another on our New Undergrads Facebook group, and we can feel their anticipation for the start of university life! The guidance you’ve provided to your students, especially through pandemic times, truly made a difference.
We have a few updates to cap off the school year. Whatever your summer plans may look like, we hope it will be an amazing one and we look forward to reconnecting in the Fall! COVID-19 UPDATESPlanning is underway for a safe return to campus in the Fall term. SFU will prioritize teaching, learning and research while continuing to ensure the safety of our students, faculty and staff. Updates for the SFU community will be posted on our Return to Campus website and SFU students will be kept informed via email communication. TIMELINE AND UNIVERSITY PREPHave your students accepted our admission offer and they’re wondering, what’s next? They can refer to this handy timeline on what to expect between now and September. We recommend all students to start working their way through University Prep, a free, self-paced, online course. The course will answer a lot of common questions such as “What is my program?”, “Which courses do I have to take?” and “How do I course plan?”. Students will also be introduced to useful resources, including how to connect with an academic advisor, as they move through the course. ADMISSION UPDATESWe continue to make admission offers for the Fall term. If you have questions or concerns about your student’s application, you’re welcome to connect with the Student Recruitment Team for an update. DEFERRALWe understand that due to individual circumstances, a student may not be able to start their studies for their admitted term. SFU has a deferral application process in place, and deferrals are granted for up to one year. For more information on the deferral process, visit our website. DID YOU KNOW?Studies show that living in on-campus residence among a like-minded community of students, and with easy access to university recourse, could lead to an increase in GPA. Residence life is an excellent choice for a student seeking convenient housing, greater academic success, and a full social life. SFU residences are located at the Burnaby Campus, and we offer all single occupancy rooms, with an all-you-care-to-eat meal plan. Residence applications are open for the Fall 2021 term. Learn more
