Public Health guidance and University of Waterloo operations may have changed. For the most up-to-date information, please visit our COVID-19 frequently asked questions.
We are managing a COVID-19 outbreak of two cases in Claudette Millar Hall.
Public health officials have identified that the cases may be linked to a large cluster of COVID cases in the community.
If you do not hear from public health officials, you should continue to self-monitor for symptoms of COVID-19 and seek testing if needed. We all need to avoid social gatherings to stop the spread of COVID-19.
The start of the term is fast approaching and the University has created a form to check-in on your plans for fall term. The form is mandatory for all international students and asks about your travel history and plans - including your quarantine plan (if applicable). By filling out the form, we can all comply with the Government of Canada and University of Waterloo health guidelines related to COVID-19 and help keep each other safe.
Last week, the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) made an announcement to support you, as international students beginning your studies in fall 2020. Below you will find an update from our University of Waterloo immigration consultants regarding the IRCC announcement. I encourage you to take some time to review the information and also consider attending the International Grad Student Live chat session tomorrow.
