My name is Amandeep, and I&#039;m a student in the Try-A-Trade Pre-Apprenticeship Program at Niagara College. Before coming to Canada, I completed an MBA and worked in market research and consumer insights.

As a Transition Peer, I hope to help new students feel welcomed and confident as they begin their journey at Niagara College.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                    <div class=\"js-accordion__panel\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\n                        <div class=\"js-accordion__header\">Favourite NC Memory <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div>\n                            One of my favorite memories at Niagara College has been working alongside classmates in the Try-A-Trade program, learning practical skills, and supporting one another throughout the program.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                    <div class=\"js-accordion__panel\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\n                        <div class=\"js-accordion__header\">Advice or tip for a new student transitioning to NC <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div>\n                            Don&#039;t hesitate to ask questions and take advantage of the support services available at Niagara College.

I&#039;m Bee, an international student currently studying Personal Support Worker at Niagara College. I&#039;m passionate about learning, embracing new experiences, and encouraging others along the way. I enjoy building meaningful connections, stepping outside my comfort zone, and making the most of every opportunity that comes my way.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                    <div class=\"js-accordion__panel\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\n                        <div class=\"js-accordion__header\">Favourite NC Memory <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div>\n                            During my first program at Niagara College, I had the opportunity to tour the Niagara College Teaching Winery, and it was an insightful and enjoyable experience. Walking through the vineyards, exploring the production facilities, and learning about the winemaking process gave me a new appreciation for the college&#039;s hands-on approach to learning. What makes my time at NC even more memorable were the friendships I built through group projects and presentations. Those shared experiences made learning enjoyable and reminded me that some of the best memories in college are created alongside the people you meet.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                    <div class=\"js-accordion__panel\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\n                        <div class=\"js-accordion__header\">Advice or tip for a new student transitioning to NC <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div>\n                            Starting somewhere new can feel overwhelming but remember ~ you don&#039;t have to have everything figured out on day one. Be curious, ask questions, and say yes to new opportunities. Join a club, volunteer, speak up in class, or introduce yourself to someone new. Sometimes the smallest step outside your comfort zone leads to the biggest opportunities, lifelong friendships, and experiences you&#039;ll never forget. Take it one step at a time, believe in yourself, and enjoy the journey.

My name is Sharon, and I&#039;m an international student from Kenya. I graduated from the Palliative Care program at Niagara College and am currently pursuing my second program in Community Mental Health. I enjoy connecting with new people, learning from different experiences, and actively participating in campus life. My time at Niagara College has been an incredible journey of growth, resilience, and learning.

It was my first time trying several roller coasters, and although I was terrified at first, the experience was both exhilarating and unforgettable. It helped me overcome my fear of heights and step outside my comfort zone.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                \n                    <div class=\"js-accordion__panel\" style=\"display: none;\">\n\n                        <div class=\"js-accordion__header\">Advice or tip for a new student transitioning to NC <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right\"><\/i><\/div>\n                        <div>\n                            Be open to getting involved in campus life by joining events, clubs, and student activities. It&#039;s a great way to meet new people, make lasting friendships, and feel more at home on campus. Make use of the support services Niagara College offers, and never hesitate to reach out to professors, staff, or classmates if you need guidance. Stay on top of your coursework by managing your time well, checking your student email regularly, and keeping track of important deadlines. Finally, embrace new opportunities, be patient with yourself as you adjust, and remember that every experience whether challenging or exciting will help you grow both personally and academically.                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <div id=\"ncetp-27342\" class=\"nce-transition-peer-item campus-342\">\n            <div class=\"photo\">\n                                    <!--<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"Photo of \">-->\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.niagaracollege.ca\/engagement\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/146\/2025\/07\/3.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of Tanmay\">\n                            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"details\">\n                <h4>Tanmay<\/h4>\n                <div class=\"campus\">\n                    Daniel J.

Your Program Information Session is your chance to connect with your program coordinators and instructors, who are excited to welcome you to NC! You will receive critical information about your program, courses, and what to expect for the entire term. Most programs will schedule their session in person on Orientation at the campus that you will be attending, but some programs may schedule your session online, or during your first day of classes. Check the sessions schedule below to know where and when your session is taking place.

Consider expenses like: tuition, textbooks, residence\/off-campus living, groceries, laundry, etc. If the student needs to get a part-time job in order to offset their expenses, speak with them about how many hours per week they can work that will not disturb their studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking frankly with your student and coming up with a reasonable plan, will reduce stress and tension while
