International Centre

Make friends around the world

International students

Our students come from all over the world. At Dalhousie, you will join nearly 1,200 international students from more than 110 countries.

As an international student, you'll benefit from our international student societies, on-campus advisors and specialized programs and services. Staff and volunteers at the International Centre host fun and informative orientation programs and cultural events, provide a welcoming lounge, as well as referral and advising services related to immigration, health care, finances, travel and personal matters.

Exchange students

At Dalhousie you can study theatre in Prague, French in Dijon, nursing in The Gambia, international development in Cuba or computer science in Japan. That’s just a few of the over 70 international exchange options to explore.

Studying abroad for a semester or a full year is a great chance to experience new cultures and learn new languages. Travelling can also get you closer to your studies if they happen to be centred outside Canada.
