The SMU Welcome Team

The SMU Welcome Team aims to create the best welcome experience as you begin your studies. For 2023 to 2024, the coordinators are:

Pack Leaders

A dedicated group of students called Pack Leaders take charge of leading various welcome activities and events. Each year, Pack Leaders apply and go through an interview process to get selected for this role. Once chosen, they receive training to prepare for the arrival of new students.

Peer Coaches

New students are assigned a Peer Success Coach, an upper-year SMU student who can help you adjust to your life as a student at Saint Mary’s. Coaches contact you via email in early July and invite you to connect on a weekly basis regarding various topics like:

  • New student essentials
  • Campus resources and supports
  • Getting involved
  • How to succeed as a student

Be sure to check your email in early July to connect with your Peer Success Coach. If you haven't heard from your peer coach, email peercoaching@smu.ca with your name and A#.
