Community Coordinators & Community Assistants

If you don't live in residence, your community coordinators can be your first point of support. They facilitate activities, events and programs to develop a strong sense of community for Off-Campus Students. 

They manage off-campus spaces such as the Commuter Student Centre, and the Clark Reading Room!

What do they do?

Community Coordinators (CoCos) and Community Assistants (CAs) help orient new students to off-campus, commuter, and university life. They connect students with the appropriate resources related to students’ personal, academic, financial, or social concerns. They also foster a mutually supportive and inclusive atmosphere by providing students with programming and events in University College spaces, collaborating with other student groups, and disseminating information about off-campus activities.

When to meet with your CoCos and CAs:

  • If you want one-on-one peer support and advice on personal, academic, financial, social, or other matters;
  • To participate in engaging programs and meet new people;
  • To learn how to get involved in the UC community.
