It’s only an hour’s drive from Canada’s biggest city, Toronto

University of Guelph
but it’s not just the proximity to Canada’s biggest job market that makes the city of Guelph one of the best places to live in Canada. On its own, Guelph is beautiful. A combination of wonderful homes, lush landscaping, and a truly picturesque university, all adds up to make Guelph great, and the University of Guelph a desired place to study!
International students love Guelph for its programs in Biological Science, Food and Agricultural Science, Engineering, and Business – and as such, the University of Guelph attracts a large number of students from overseas every year.

For those students looking for more non-traditional or diverseroutes of study, Guelph also offers a wide range of international exchange and ‘semester abroad’ programs – meaning that students, no matter where they’re originally from, can benefit from both a top quality Canadian education (and degree), while also gaining valuable international experience, studying abroad with a partner institution.
Each year Canadian students assess what they like about their university, and each year Guelph students are among the most satisfied anywhere in Canada. Maybe it’s satisfied stomachs – as Guelph is also rated as having the best on-campus food in Canada!
