Whether from the comfort and convenience of their own home or joining us on one of our two undergraduate campuses, we'll ensure their questions are answered every step of the way.
Admissions Website
The Admissions section of our website will help guide students from application to offer, providing them with step-by-step instructions during each part of the application journey.

Watch our Admissions Top Questions Video Series
For the first time, our Recruitment and Admissions team is sitting down to produce a monthly video series focused on admissions. The videos will discuss the top questions we know students have during that month and answer them all in less than 5 minutes. Each month will offer a domestic and international version to ensure students get the information specific to their application type. Videos will be posted the first week of every month and are available on Laurier's YouTube channel and website.
