International students who have a Canadian friend or family are more quickly able to adjust to our culture and more fully enjoy
the experience of living in a new country far from their families and friends back home.
We also enjoy getting to know international students and to have the opportunity to learn about countries we may never have the
opportunity to visit ourselves.
Our Friendship Partner program is designed to match an international student with a Canadian friend or family.
Your partner would keep in touch with you by phone and meet with you at times determined by your workload at the University.
