If you require a physical ID card for your program, we will print your card and make it available for pickup at our IT HelpDesk. To arrange a pickup time, please email the Help Desk at helpdesk@NWPolytech.ca.

Please note, if a physical card is not required for your program, but you require it for another reason, please upload your photo and then email the Help Desk at helpdesk@NWPolytech.ca to request that it be printed and arranged for pickup.

The student hub is a place on our website where you can find all support information in one place, including technical support should you require it! You can access the Hub through the Student Life section of the website.

Academic Advising

Academic Advisors help you to plan your program. If you are in a 1-2 year Certificate or Diploma program you will be introduced to your Academic Advisor in your program specific orientation at the end of this section. If you are in a University Transfer program, you can access an Academic Advisor in Student Services.

The Northwestern Polytechnic Students' Association (NWPSA) is a nonprofit organization located within Northwestern Polytechnic. NWPSA is proudly student owned and operated. We are constantly thinking of ways we can help our fellow students ensure they receive the best experience possible. NWPSA 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 the institution's 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 NWPSA 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.
