Supporting Our Students

9095

At McMaster, international students have access to accredited experts on staff who offer extra guidance on academics, health, wellness, immigration, finances, housing, cultural and social matters and even finding the best cellphone plan.

As an incoming first-year student, we want to make sure every first-year student feels connected and supported, no matter what the academic year looks like. The Archway team is here for you.
