Study Abroad

The Renison International Office offers a variety of short-term international experiences designed to help students explore the world while developing personally and academically. Alongside the in-house opportunities available through Renison, students can participate in programs that foster cultural learning, global engagement, and meaningful connections. The team also provides guidance and support for students and residents interested in pursuing full-term exchange opportunities through Waterloo International. Whether students are looking for a short-term experience or a longer international exchange, support is available throughout the planning process. These opportunities encourage students to expand their perspectives, build confidence, and gain valuable global experience.

NOTE: please familiarize yourself with the most current requirements established by Waterloo International Safety Abroad for international travel sanctioned by the university.

The Rita Lee-Chui International Education Fund exists to support students’ international education experiences through the allocation of a travel bursary. Students participating in international travel related to Renison courses or programs are eligible to apply for funding. Successful applicants may receive a $500 grant to help subsidize transportation costs associated with their experience abroad. This funding helps make international opportunities more accessible and financially manageable for students. By reducing some of the financial barriers to travel, the fund encourages more students to pursue meaningful global learning experiences and cultural exchange opportunities.
