Guide for Newly Admitted International Student at OCAD University

International Student Guide is motivated by my own experience as an international student pursuing studying in Canada. I suffered some inconvenience and challenges because there are too many differences between my home country and Canada, such as medical system, renting, transportation, etc. Also, I was not sure what I need to prepare for studying in Canada after I arrived here. I value my experience and design this project “OCAD UNIVERSITY International Student Guide” for potential international students and international students based on their needs to improve their experience studying at this unique Art & Design University. There are five parts of this guide, prepare documents, prepare for leaving, what to do after arrive, get help with academic and living in Toronto. Therefore, after international students get offer from OCAD they can follow the steps to prepare their trip to Canada. Also, after they arrived Canada this guide indicates what they need to get for living in Canada. http://openresearch.ocadu.ca/id/eprint/2372/
