Can not choose my courses

Hi guys! I’m a new student starting at Trent in Fall 2026.

I know that course registration opened on June 25, but when I log into my Trent Portal, I don’t see the “Choosing Your Courses,” “Course Registration,” or “Self-Service” icons. The only ones I can see are “Academic Timetable” and “Academic Calendar.”

Is anyone else having the same issue, or does anyone know how to fix it?

Regular Suite Double housing

Hi everyone,

I’ll be starting the Nursing program at Trent this September, and my residence room selection date is coming up soon. I’m planning to choose a Regular Suite Double (the cheapest one) but I’m still deciding between the colleges.

My main priority is the washroom arrangement. I’m okay with sharing a washroom, but I would strongly prefer to share it with female students only, ideally in an all-female suite if possible.

Distance is also important to me, especially since I’ll be in Nursing. From what I’ve heard, Otonabee may be the closest option for Nursing students. I’m also considering Champlain and Lady Eaton, but I’m wondering which one is farther. Is the walking distance from Champlain or Lady Eaton to the Nursing/science buildings manageable? If it’s under around 10 minutes, I’m totally okay with that.

I’d really appreciate any advice from current students, especially anyone who has lived in a Regular Suite Double at Otonabee, Champlain, or Lady Eaton.
