International Student Support

Are you an international student looking for a supportive community? Our international student support group is run in collaboration with Counselling Services and the International Education Centre to provide a safe space for meaningful conversations with students from all over the world. In this group, you will have the opportunity to connect over differences and similarities, and an opportunity to express your thoughts. Themes may include discussing navigating cultural shock, homesickness and building resilience.

Each meeting will have a general theme and you are welcome to participate, or just sit in and listen.

Our group is run by facilitators who are committed to building a safe, culturally responsive environment.

Program details:

Meetings will take place biweekly Mondays from 3 pm-4 pm, starting September 16 until December 9. Meetings will be held:

This is an in-person and free group that meets in C126 (1st Floor, C Building). No registration is required – just drop by!
