Did your first semester not go as planned? We're here to help you bounce back!

Bounce Back is an optional program for first-year students who struggled with their academics in their first semester. Participants meet with an upper-year facilitator once a week. Facilitators can help you…

  • set goals
  • explore strategies and resources
  • help to keep you accountable

The meetings are flexible and can be planned around your schedule!

Registration for the Bounce Back Program will open on Dec. 1, 2026. Please email start@uoguelph.ca if you have any questions.
