Niagara University acknowledges the challenges that newcomers may encounter when adjusting to a new environment. Through our Student Services, we provide guidance on immigration procedures, housing options, healthcare services, cultural adaptation, and more. Whether you’re a new student navigating campus life or a family member supporting a loved one’s educational journey, rest assured, we’re here to assist you every step of the way.
Newcomer Students are those who have lived in Canada for a short period of time and can include Canadian Citizens and Permanent Residents.
International Students are those who require a study permit to pursue education in a country other than their home country.
Note: While all international students may be newcomers to Canada, Niagara University acknowledges that not all newcomers may be international students.
Our Newcomer & Family Support program provides essential services and resources to facilitate a seamless transition to life at Niagara University and within the surrounding community for all newcomer students and their families.
