International students are an integral part of Memorial University. The Internationalization Office of Memorial University is here to welcome you and provide support you throughout your student journey at Memorial. Whether you have questions or just want to say hello, our advisers are happy to chat with you. The International Student Advisors are available 9:00am – 5:00pm Monday – Friday (closed 1 - 2 p.m.). You can also email your questions to the advisors at international@mun.ca

Arrivals and Welcome Information Session

Make sure to attend the Winter 2024 Information Sessions.

At these info sessions, you will hear the IO advisors talk about immigration, arriving in Canada, finding off-campus housing, finding a job on or off campus and other important topics. Come with your questions because at the end of each session, you will have the opportunity to have your questions answered by one of our advisors.

If you have any questions about the info sessions, please send an email to arrivals@mun.ca

Airport Greeter Program

The Internationalization Office provides the St. John's Airport Greeter Service for New International Students each semester. Airport greeters are student employees who will meet you upon arrival and provide necessary information about St. John’s and Memorial University. This service will run from December 15th, 2023 – January 15th, 2024. You can also request a greeter for arrivals outside of these dates, but we cannot guarantee one will be available. To request a greeter, you must complete the Arrivals Form.

The Listserv is an email which contains a list of important university information, upcoming events happening on campus and in the city and  job opportunities.
