Why I Chose Laurier

Laurier is a small campus and thus, makes up a very closely-knitted and well-connected community. It values diversity and warmly welcomes international students as Golden Hawks. It not only offered the major I was interested in but also introduced me to the concept of ‘Options,’ which would make my degree more valuable and my experience at Laurier more enriching. Laurier also encourages the concept of getting involved, which really fascinated me. Along with all these reasons, Laurier’s positive and friendly environment was one of the biggest reasons I chose to become a Golden Hawk. It has just been a year but this Golden Hawk already feels at home.
