Every first year student is guaranteed a residence space as long as proper registration deadlines are met.

Students may also propose independent projects that involve an international experience and have it count as credit towards your degree.
Campus Tours
We encourage prospective students to visit our campus to truly appreciate what Mount Allison has to offer. We invite you to visit anytime throughout the year. However, we recommend you visit during the academic year (September to April) to experience the campus in its true setting. Your visit may include a meeting with an admissions counsellor, a campus tour, class observation, meetings with faculty members or sports coaches, attending a class, and staying overnight in residence. We will do our best to accommodate additional needs or requests you may have. Campus visits can be arranged by contacting Student Services.
