OUR MISSION

The principal mission of the International Programs at the University of Toronto, New College is to provide effective and high quality enrichment, transition and preparatory programs for international students. It is home to many unique opportunities and programs whose aims are to respond to the complex issues international students face in university transition, language learning and cultural immersion.

Ranging from short term summer programs to full year conditional admission programs, the International Programs draws on established strengths from within the University of Toronto and outside industry professionals.

International Programs

Our community of students in all programs spans across a broad range of disciplines from business, engineering, humanities and life sciences from over 50 different countries. In recognition of the increasingly significant role international students play at the University of Toronto, the International Programs Office was established.

Its goal is to foster the strengths of the University and its undergraduate Colleges to help transition and prepare international students to undertake further academic rigors and augment language learning and university studies.

Land Acknowledgement

We wish to acknowledge this land on which the University of Toronto operates. For thousands of years it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.

Why do we acknowledge the land? Read more at indigenous.utoronto.ca.
