Meet with our International Student Ambassadors through interactive virtual conversations designed to help you prepare for life at Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) before classes begin.
Whether you're looking to learn more about life in Toronto, make new friends, prepare for university or get ready for your move to Canada, these sessions are a great opportunity to ask questions, meet fellow incoming students and build connections before classes begin.
This isn't your typical webinar. You'll participate in small-group conversations, meet other incoming students, and chat with current TMU students in an interactive online space.
