Advising and support
We provide non-academic advising on many topics. Whether you need help adapting to a new country or some advice on income tax preparation, our staff are here to provide you with support. Some examples of advising include:
- Immigration: if you have questions about your study permit, visa, or your ability to work in Canada.
- Personal matters: if you are struggling with your studies or mental health and you would like direction or support.
- Advocacy: if you encounter a negative experience and need to discuss it with a staff member.
- Settlement: if you require support settling into campus and community life.
- Food insecurity: if you need support with purchasing groceries and/or where you can find culturally relevant food.
Please note that we cannot advise you on academic topics such as registration, fees and payments, and changes to your program or major.
To book an appointment with a Student Advisor, email onestop@acadiau.ca or visit us in the OneStop Service Centre in the Beveridge Arts Centre, room 112.

Events and Activities at the WIC
The Wong International Centre (WIC) offers international students a “home away from home”. It was launched in 1997 with the generous support of Gene D. Wong ('49), Acadia’s first graduate of Chinese descent, to provide support and information for Acadia’s many international students. The Centre offers multiple rooms to gather and relax, study spaces, a board room, a mobile staff office space, and a dining room and kitchen where you can cook your favourite foods from home. It is open daily from 8:30am to 9:00pm
Our team also hosts events throughout the academic year, ranging from cultural experiences, to information sessions, to food based events. Follow us on Instagram to stay up-to-date on the latest events. You can also book the Centre to host an event of your own.
