SHIFT
SHIFT is Toronto Metropolitan University's orientation program for incoming students with disabilities.
Open to all students with disabilities entering any Ontario post-secondary institution for the 2023-2024 academic year, SHIFT offers sessions that guide students through transitioning to post-secondary with a disability.
SHIFT sessions provide information to students and parents/support persons about navigating Academic Accommodation Support (AAS). Students have an opportunity to learn from AAS staff and connect with students with similar experiences.
SHIFT is excited to offer hybrid programming! Students can choose to attend SHIFT either virtually or in-person on Toronto Met campus!
