Join us at Laurier
Becoming a Golden Hawk means more than just cheering on our (really good) varsity teams – 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.

Laurier is not just a university or a campus, we're a community – and we're here for you.
Laurier is committed to being flexible and accommodating as you navigate these unprecedented times of uncertainty due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). We recognize you’re facing disruption and uncertainty, and we're sympathetic that these circumstances are beyond your control.
We want to help you achieve your goal of attending Laurier so we’ve compiled this guide for you with resources and support to make your journey easier. We will get through this together – this is our commitment to you.
Future Student FAQ
We will keep you informed. Laurier and the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on your application(s). Keep an eye out for email notices and refer to our future student frequently asked questions (FAQ) for the latest up-to-date information.
If you have a question that is not answered in our FAQ, please contact our office. Laurier staff are working from a virtual environment and can be contacted via email at international@wlu.ca.
English Proficiency Requirement
We will be flexible. Laurier is committed to assisting applicants whose ability to take an English proficiency test has been impacted due to COVID-19.
As a specific response to COVID-19, Laurier has implemented several initiatives to support applicants with meeting their English proficiency condition.
- Students who are academically eligible for their program will receive an offer of admission that is conditional upon meeting Laurier’s English proficiency requirements.
- Laurier has extended the deadline for students to provide evidence of their English proficiency to Aug. 15, 2020.

Meet With an International Recruiter
We're here to help. We would like to invite international students who have applied to Laurier for fall 2020 to meet one-on-one with an international recruiter. This is a great way to learn more about all Laurier has to offer, as well as an opportunity to discuss your application and what's next in the admissions process.
If you are interested in registering for a virtual session, submit our Meet With an International Recruiter request form and a member of our team will email you with the details.
Connect with Current Students
We’re available to answer your questions. Send us your questions through our Ask Me Anything request form and our Laurier student ambassadors will reach out via email with answers to your questions. It's a great opportunity to connect with a current Laurier student who will share their personal experience and provide insight into our campuses and programs.
It's important to take care of yourself and others. We’re going forward together as a community – we're here for you and we will get through this together.
