Avis sur Wilfried Laurier University (WLU)

Its frustrating when you cannot enroll in your intended classes at the same time as local students can. Obviously at the time of arrival you are told that the course is now full and you are to go on a waiting list. This becomes problematic if you need specific courses for credit at your home institution, so have a number of different options up your sleave at all times.

Its a challenge to juggle a whole new experience, the people you are continually meeting, work, a social life and on top of it all the academic side. Time management is probably the key. Tutors in general get the picture when you tell them you are international and studies may not neccessarily be your number one priority but its always good to touch base with them and let them know where you are at / how you are coping with the work load.

A great close-knit university where people thrive on team spirit. With a very strong sports based curriculum, it was easy to meet my university course requirements. Staff and students overall where very accommodating.

They should ask national students to integrate exchange students.

Excellent choice. The international exchange program really help for the integration.
