Tips for Success
One tip that I would offer new international students starting their program at UVic is... look into the different opportunities available at UVic, explore the beauty of Victoria and don’t be afraid to try something new!
One of the best ways for international students to get connected during their time at UVic would be… keep an eye on ICS’s Upcoming Events page and the Global Community page!
Student Success Tip: There are no bad questions – when in doubt, it is always good to ask.
