Residence Academic Leaders

Residence Academic Leaders (RAL) are the result of a collaborative Durham College and the Campus Living Centres project aimed at enhancing academic supports for students living on-campus. South Village Residence and Simcoe Village Residence both have RAL available to offer peer support programs such as study groups, skill development workshops, drop-in sessions and service referrals.

For more information on this program prior to move-in, please check your residence package. Once you have moved into residence you may visit the bulletin board in the lobby of either residence for contact information and office hours.

  • Developing academic plans to promote success in the event of failed subjects or a low grade point average (GPA);
  • Finding equivalent credits;
  • Identifying career goals and making sound academic decisions;
  • Making decisions regarding full and part-time studies;
  • Reviewing graduation requirements;
  • Setting up academic plans;
  • Selecting electives and options; and
