Your Orientation Begins Now

We can't wait to meet you!

Orientation programming begins August 26 with the opening of the Welcome Centre and will continue throughout September!

We encourage you to begin your journey by taking time to complete the five short Pre-Arrival Modules created just for you and explore the New Students section of our website.

Whether this is your first experience living in Canada and apart from your family and friends or you’ve spent time here already, your first year at Western will mean adjusting to a new cultural, social, and academic environment. All new students are encouraged to review these modules and participate in the many virtual and in-person International Student Orientation events we have planned for you.
