Student Advising
International students often have questions about studying and working in Canada or about making applications to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
The International Student Services Office (ISSO) provides information and support on immigration issues. We are open Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. throughout the year.
For the most common immigration applications, our detailed guides are a good place to start:
