Fall 2022 International Student Orientation

As the university transitions to in-person classes, our orientation delivery will be both online and in-person. The in-person orientation will be hosted from Wednesday, August 31st, to Friday, September 2nd, 2022. Registration required!

We are delivering a number of online webinars to help you get settled into your new home and to ease your academic transition to MSVU. These webinars are scheduled throughout July to August 2022.

Traveling to Canada: COVID-19 Requirements

MSVU international students are no longer required to have their quarantine plans approved by the International Education Centre. However, you are still required to have a quarantine plan to enter Canada. Please continue to check this website as it will help you create your own quarantine plan and will prepare you for your travel to Canada.
