Becoming a Golden Hawk means more than just cheering on our (really good) varsity teams โ it means being a student who cares about your community, who works hard in the classroom, and who takes advantage of all the learning opportunities that can happen outside the classroom, too.

There's a place for you here.
Laurier traces its roots to the opening of the Evangelical Lutheran Seminary in Waterloo more than 100 years ago in 1911. The Ontario Heritage Trust historic plaque commemorates the important contribution of Laurier to education in Ontario and in Canada.
“Professors genuinely cared about my education and success — they constantly challenged me and gave me opportunities to work in labs and take on leadership roles.”

“The soft skills I was able to learn through the small classroom environments, even in just first year, put me at an incredible advantage. I have been trained to think on my feet, be motivated, be knowledgeable in what I do, and, most importantly, be professional.”

Business Administration
“Having the chance to experience in real life what I was learning in the classroom, for three different courses, was one of the highlights of my Laurier experience.”
