Academic Advising

Academic Advisors help you to plan your program.

The Students' Association of Grande Prairie Regional College (SAGPRC) is a nonprofit organization located within Grande Prairie Regional College (GPRC). SAGPRC is proudly student owned and operated. We are constantly thinking of ways we can help GPRC students ensure they receive the best experience possible. SAGPRC offers students many different benefits such as the health and dental program*, a relaxing lounge, study space and fun events and activities. Most importantly we provide student representation to College faculty and administration, as well as municipal and provincial levels of government.

*Registration in most full-time credit programs means you are automatically enrolled in the mandatory extended student health and dental plan. You may opt out of this plan if you can prove extended coverage by another plan. You must opt out each year. Please refer to eligibility requirements on the SAGPRC website.

The Learning Commons is more than just a library! It is the academic heart of our campuses and a place for students, faculty, and community to engage, learn and discover. All library services as well as testing accommodation, research support, technology assistance, accessibility services and tutor supports can be found here.
