Supporting Students’ Individual Journeys

The Maritimes University Tour was memorable. Touring campuses and seeing university life first-hand was an invaluable experience. Not only was it fun, but it pushed me to start thinking seriously about my future. After the trip, Mr. Loewen helped me select my senior high courses based on my interests and the university programs I wanted to apply to. It was really exciting to receive some early offers, and I thank WIC for helping me get to the next level in my educational journey.

What We Offer

University Tours

Every Grade 12 student participates in our annual University Tours, where they explore institutions in Quebec and Ontario, the Maritimes, or locally at the University of Calgary, University of Alberta and Mount Royal University.

This firsthand experience gives students a deeper understanding of university life and helps them make informed decisions about their next steps. 

Wolfpack Chat

A series of virtual or in-person conversations where professionals, including many of our alumni, share their life experiences, professional journeys, and advice with current students. 

Alumni participants play a special role in these sessions, bringing their unique perspectives, stories and insights to inspire and support students as they navigate their own unique journeys.

One-on-One Support

Personalized one-on-one support helps students make informed decisions about their future. Our advisors help students explore career interests, understand post-secondary options, and set goals for their personal and academic growth. 

Workshops & Webinars

To keep both students and families informed, we offer regular workshops and webinars. These sessiongs cover various topics, including academic planning, university applications and scholarship opportunities.

University Visits and Fairs

WIC brings in university recruiters to provide students with valuable insight and information, helping them understand post-secondary options and the application process. These fairs give students direct access to representatives from various institutions, ensuring they make informed decisions.
