What students and alumni from around the world say about U of G and Lang
"At Lang was the first time I understood how sustainability and business are connected. Everything we did at Lang was really based around that value. I now apply the expertise and knowledge that I learned at Lang to my career."
"I would tell other international students to consider both the impact and what Lang offers. Lang’s impact goes beyond education and empowers students to work towards improving their lives in unique ways. Lang offers a lot of flexibility in terms of education and the resources that are available to every student, all you have to do is take advantage of them."
At U of G, I have met students with similar backgrounds, who understand the uniqueness of my identity. I was able to find solace in a community of people that were like me, in an environment where I was supported. Like the Guelph Black Student Association, where Black students share their experiences, support each other, and celebrate Black culture in a safe space.
"The profs at Lang know how important it is to balance textbook knowledge and real-life information. Their impact on my personal and professional life exceeds anyone else, including my family. As an international student, the support I received from Lang was important to my growth."
