UWinnipeg Students Studying

The University of Winnipeg offers more than 50 undergraduate degree programs, graduate degree programs, post-graduate professional programs, English Language programs and a thriving high school, The Collegiate, right on campus.

Academically-qualified students at The Collegiate can begin taking university-credit courses in their grade 11 and grade 12 years and are also given preferred access to university course selection when they make the transition from The Collegiate into their UWinnipeg degree program.

The University of Winnipeg is located in the central business district in a province that consistently has one of the highest employment rates and one of the lowest costs of living in all of North America. In addition, the Province of Manitoba has an international student stream within its provincial nominee program that provides graduates with opportunities to apply for permanent residency based, in part, on the successful completion of their degree studies.

As well, the Province of Manitoba offers international students who graduate and find employment in Manitoba the opportunity to receive a tuition refund in the form of an income tax credit – making UWinnipeg one of the most affordable international study abroad opportunities in the world.
