Program information and academic advising
Each faculty provides academic advising to both prospective students and current UNB students.
To find specific information about a particular program, please download the list of departmental deans, directors, and chairs and make an appointment with the appropriate advisor for you.
Once you are admitted to a UNB program, your advisor will guide you in your course selection and periodically review your progress and program requirements.
Adult learning
If you are an adult who wishes to explore the possibilities of university study or if you have decided to attend university on either a full or part-time basis, you may have "how do I get started" questions. We have the answers.
