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.

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!

Coming from Toronto to Antigonish was certainly an adjustment, but now there’s no going back for me.

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.

Originally from London, Ontario—my first day in Nova Scotia was my first day at StFX. I graduated as an English Major, with a minor in Art History. After coming to school, to play football, I was welcomed by the StFX community. For the last five years I have been happy to call Antigonish my home.
