We support new students and their families by fostering a welcoming community, articulating expectations and bringing awareness to key campus and community resources through our programming.
New student transition programming also creates opportunities for upper year students' to deepen their sense of belonging and connection to Waterloo through nearly 1000 volunteer and paid roles.
