Facilitating Student Integration
The Buddy program pairs new international students with current students who provide the friendly face, helping hand, and first Montreal friendship that can make a world of difference for new arrivals. Buddies can also offer linguistic support, cultural guidance and information about life at Â鶹AV. Now in its 27th year, the Buddy Program has helped thousands of international students - more than 900 last year - settle into Â鶹AV and Montreal.
