Plan your undergraduate degree with useful resources to help guide you along your academic journey — from entering your first year as an Arts student to receiving your degree.


I chose Arts One and then the Honours English programs because I loved reading and writing, but what I enjoyed the most was the built-in community of driven and curious peers who also happened to be lots of fun to be around as well.
