From time to time, we get questions in-person and via email (fmua@utoronto.ca) about the Faculty, the FMUA and the wider University.

• Our Registrar, Nalayini, is a reliable first-stop whenever you have questions, concerns or are facing issues that are getting in the way of your success.
• The Academic Success Centre (ASC) is the place to go to learn how to develop skills in time management, exam preparation, textbook reading, note-taking, and dealing with anxiety, procrastination and perfectionism. Make an appointment with a learning skills counselor at the reception desk or by calling 416-978-7970. You can also visit the ASC drop-in centre in the Koffler building at 214 College Street.
• The University of Toronto Peer Tutoring (UTPT) club provides free tutoring sessions with qualified student volunteers.
• Library tours and workshops are available to students wishing to improve their research skills.
• Computer labs and facilities are provided at most libraries, faculties and colleges for students who do not have computers at home or who want to do school work in between classes on campus.
