Advice for New International Students: Take time to do some exploring in first year! Moving to a new country can be scary, especially when you are trying to get good grades and make new friends. However, four years are going to go by very fast so take the time to soak it all in. Explore different places in Ottawa and get involved on campus as soon as you can!
