From the Student Life and Recruitment Coordinator

Hello, and welcome to Grebel!

We are so excited to meet you so we can hear about your hopes for residence and tell you about all the things we love about the Grebel residence community. When you come on a Grebel tour, you will see our beautiful residence rooms with huge windows, learn about opportunities to get involved in things like student leadership or athletics, and take in other spaces like the dining room, music practice rooms, workout room, and lounges. You can book a tour today! 

If you have any questions about any of the options below, or if you just want to connect with me, I can be reached by email at gemma.ricker@uwaterloo.ca.
