University Prep Micro-Course


Discover what learning is really like at U of T with this free, three-part, virtual micro-course.

Each 90-minute session, led by learning strategists on Quercus (U of T’s learning platform), introduces key strategies for success. We encourage students to attend all three workshops, which are interconnected and build upon each other.

All U of T students are welcome to enroll in the University Prep Micro-Course. While it focuses on St. George campus resources, students from UTM and UTSC are welcome to attend.
