Choosing where to attend university is a big step, and we want you to feel confident in whatever decision you make. That’s why our team of Student Success Leaders are here to provide you with all of the information you need to decide if StFX is the right fit for you.
We’ve introduced a number of new ways to connect with a Student Success Leader this year. Because of COVID-19, we aren’t able to travel across Canada or the United States to meet as many of you in person as we would have hoped. So, if you’re interested in StFX we encourage you to take advantage of these opportunities:

From the very first moment I arrived in Antigonish, I knew that I had made the right decision in choosing StFX University for my Undergraduate degree. As scary as it was to move halfway across the country from my hometown of Ottawa ON, I quickly felt completely at home in Nova Scotia. Living near the ocean allowed me to really take advantage of all the hands-on learning and research opportunities that StFX offers, and I ultimately graduated with a BA in Aquatic Resources, Public Policy and Social Research. I am more than happy to help answer any questions that you may have, and I look forward to helping you discover your very own X-perience!

Making the move from my small town in Vermont to Antigonish, Nova Scotia to attend StFX was a huge decision, but the right one. From the very first day on campus, I was welcomed into the Xaverian community and took advantage of the many opportunities StFX has to offer. I graduated in 2019 with a BA in political science and I am happy to return to StFX to support anyone who is interested in learning more about joining the Xaverian family.

Coming from Toronto to Antigonish was certainly an adjustment, but now there’s no going back for me. I love the Nova Scotia feel and have been involved with almost every aspect of campus life and I look forward to helping more students find their way into what I experienced at StFX.

Antigonish has been my home away from home ever since I stepped foot on the StFX campus for my undergraduate studies. During my degree, I studied abroad in Australia, volunteered through course-based service learning, and was a student ambassador for the Embassy of Australia to promote studying abroad at StFX. I love helping students discover their passion in education and finding their fit at StFX. Working as an International Admissions Specialist has allowed me to do just that with international students and families from around the world.

Growing up in Antigonish, I always knew I wanted to attend StFX. Throughout my degree, I gained valuable skills, and made lifelong friends- all while working part time on campus. In 2019, I completed my BBA with an Advanced Major in Management & Leadership. My degree opened doors for me that I never knew existed, and I’m thrilled to get to share my experience with you. I’m managing Antigonish & Guysborough Counties, as well as Southern Ontario. If you’re from either of these areas and looking to know more, hit me up!

Originally from France, after two years in Canada, I chose StFX and Antigonish to be my new home. Due to the community, the varsity teams, and the academic support, I completed my Bachelor of Arts with a Sociology major and Women's and Gender Studies minor. At the same time creating a growing business and benefiting from internship opportunities. StFX helped me grow and become the person I am today, and I would love for you to share the same amazing X-perience. I am looking forward to helping you find your way to StFX, supporting and answering any questions you may have.
