Register for a Shadow Day
Program details
- It is our goal to match up all Shadow Day requests within 2-3 weeks of the request submission. This is a program run by the Engineering Student Ambassadors, and due to term workload, availability with current students, and high demand, Shadow Day requests may not be accommodated during the requested time period for these reasons.
- Visits may go beyond classes to include other shared interests, such as clubs and student teams.
- If interested, shadows are encouraged to schedule campus and residence tours during their visit.
- You'll be provided with a customized itinerary before your visit, outlining activities and locations, and contact information (in case of emergencies).
- You will be provided with a lunch coupon on the the day of your visit.
- In general, activities will take place on Waterloo’s main campus during regular business hours (8:30am to 4:30pm, Monday to Friday).
