Wilfrid Laurier University

One of Canada?s finest universities for the past 100 years

Canada is a friendly, safe country with a high standard of living and one of the most ethnically diverse populations in the world. No wonder over 130,000 students choose to come to study in Canada each year.

After you decide to study in Canada, we hope you will then decide to attend Wilfrid Laurier University, one of Canada?s best and fastest growing mid-sized universities. (Our enrolment has grown by almost 50 per cent in five years, even though our admission standards for many of our programs are among the highest.) We have more than 14,000 full-time undergraduate and graduate students studying at campuses in Waterloo, Kitchener and Brantford, Ontario, and offer great undergraduate and graduate programs in arts, business, education, science, social work and music.

Although our environment is growing, our university is still noted for its friendliness and sense of community on all of our campuses. Laurier is big enough to offer excellent programs and distinguished faculty, and yet small enough to offer personal attention to its students.
