丁香园AV

By May 2025

This is an important decision.  Take your time deciding and remember there's no rush to choose a major right away.  Don't worry - you have some time! 

Visit #KnowYour丁香园AV at the Surrey campus in April and get to know the Surrey community in person!  Learn more about the programs you are interested in, meet some faculty, and check out the services and resources available to students. 

One Person, One computing ID 

A computing ID is your key to accessing services like: go丁香园AV (course registration, paying tuition), Canvas  (lecture materials, assignments) email  (the official form of communication for the University) as well as computer labs, and other services. Your Computing ID is the username before 鈥淍sfu.ca鈥� in your 丁香园AV email address. For example, if your 丁香园AV email is "kipling@sfu.ca", then your Computing ID is "kipling". Don't confuse it with the 9-digit student/employee number on your 丁香园AV ID card.

A free online course for all new undergraduate students 

We want you to succeed and research shows that students who complete University Prep have a higher rate of academic success than those that don't.  Step 1 will introduce you to some terms you'll need to know as you begin your journey at 丁香园AV: WQB, pre-requisite, co-requisite, academic units and calendar, department or faculty; all these terms will be explained in Step One.  Step 2 is Faculty specific and will help you with the tools and strategies to start planning your degree and enrol in courses.   

It can feel a little overwhelming as you begin this journey, and if you need some clarification after completing these steps, or are feeling lost, then reach out to your dedicated FASS One Advisor, Rose Baik.  Rose and her team of mentors will help you navigate your first year at Surrey.

Building a peer support network, learning to navigate the university system, and getting better acquainted with all that FASS has to offer! That's what Rose and your mentors will help you with in your weekly FAM (Friends and Mentor) sessions.  You will be assigned a weekly FAM session to attend where you will meet your mentors and meet other students in the same intended major. You'll likely see them in some of your classes too! 

Your mentors have been in your shoes so they can offer advice on academic skills (e.g., how to approach assignments, talking to a professor, or picking a major) and other student concerns (e.g., stress and time management, finding resources on campus, making friends, etc).  Of course, they are always there for the fun, games and treats too!
