Welcome to the University of Lethbridge!

In our office you will find a group of very kind people that understand the courage it takes to come to a new country and undertake the challenge of post-secondary studies. If you need assistance with immigration questions, help finding something on campus, tips for the best places on campus to study, or simply a safe place to talk – we are here for you.

All the best as you travel to and make Lethbridge (or Calgary!) your home.

Oki. Welcome to the University of Lethbridge!

Thank you for choosing ULethbridge to start or continue your academic journey in Canada. I still remember how exciting at the same time daunting it felt when I first came to Canada as an international student. I imagine you may have lots of questions, look no further than the International Centre! You will find resources on our website, get your questions answered through webinars and online or in-person information sessions, meet other international students and make friends, and receive guidance with your immigration-related applications. We are always here to support and cheer for you.

Wishing you a fun-filled and rewarding experience studying here. Shine like a diamond in your own way!
