Undergraduate Advising
Introducing Advisor Link
We’re excited to announce SFU has launched Advisor Link, an online booking system for academic advising appointments. Starting October 26, 2021, you can login or get more information about Advisor Link. Click here for the instructional video. Note: Only students declared in an Education program will be able to book with an Education advisor through Advisor Link.
For non-Education students, please continue to email one of our three advisors directly.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY
It is the responsibility of each student to be aware of faculty regulations as stated in the Calendar. Departmental and faculty advisors and staff are available to give advice and guidance. However, the ultimate responsibility for completeness and correctness of course selection, for compliance with and completion of program and degree requirements and for observance of regulations and deadlines rests with the student.
