Academic advisors

Academic advisors

Academic advisors are here to support you during the transition back to on-campus learning/living.

We are monitoring our emails and do our best to reply in a timely manner. We kindly ask that you don't contact multiple advisors with the same question as it delays our response times at an already busy time.

Who should you see to get your questions answered?

The School of Public Health Sciences (SPHS) has designed an advising system to meet your needs as you progress through the program. Please refer to our frequently asked questions with regards to general questions about your degree.

For further assistance, please consult with an SPHS academic advisor. The SPHS Academic Advising Team are here to assist you in making your university years as rewarding and uncomplicated as possible. 

What's my concern? Who should I see?
I have questions about my undergraduate degree in SPHS (e.g., minors, options, degree requirements, internal transfers into SPHS, academic standing, academic rules and regulations)

We encourage all students to visit our FAQ page or send their questions to the SPHS Advising Team Mailbox. For more efficient communication, please use your UWaterloo email address and always include your student number in the email.

If you would like to speak to a specific academic advisor- Doris Makowich, Jessica Kolmel, Katarzyna Satora- please attend a drop-in during individual in-person and group virtual sessions, see calendar for schedule. 

I have a question about internal transfers from SPHS to other UWaterloo departments, international exchanges, or my work term report Julie-Anne Desrochers, Student Success Officer
