  • World University Services of Canada

    World University Services of Canada (WUSC) at Ontario Tech is a student group that is dedicated to providing and improving education, employment, and empowerment opportunities for young refugees around the world. 

    Our aim is to: 

    • Advocate for social change through campaigns and events.
    • Raise awareness and educate the campus on global refugee issues.
    • Sponsor and support a WUSC student who newly immigrated to Canada through the Student Refugee Program.

    Student Refugee Program

    Within WUSC, there is a youth-to-youth sponsorship program called Student Refugee Program (SRP). It is the only one of its kind to combine resettlement with opportunities for higher education for young refugees.

    We sponsor a student every other year from a refugee background to have the opportunity to study at Ontario Tech. You currently support a WUSC student financially through your ancillary fees. We couldn’t have made this happen without your support!
