  • Wilfrid Laurier University (commonly referred to as WLU or simply Laurier) is a public university with campuses in Waterloo, Brantford and Milton,Ontario, Canada.

It is named in honour of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, the seventh Prime Minister of Canada. The university offers undergraduate and graduate programs in a variety of fields, with over 15,000 full-time undergraduate students, over 1000 full‑time graduate students, and nearly 4,000 part-time students as of fall 2019.Laurier's varsity teams, known as the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks, compete in the West Conference of the Ontario University Athletics, affiliated to the U Sports.

Course information

  • Focus of Study :
    Pathways help college graduates transition smoothly from a diploma program to a degree program and simplify the sometimes long and complex transfer credit assessment process through standardization.
    There are several types of pathways, including block transfer agreements, articulations and 2+2 agreements. Let’s find out if any of these fit your story.

    2+2 AGREEMENTS :
    A 2+2 agreement is an arrangement that allows college graduates with a particular diploma from a specific college to earn 10.0 transfer credits (or two years' worth of courses) towards their degree at Laurier. By comparison, most block transfer agreements grant a maximum of 7.5 credits (or a year and a half worth of courses).


    ARTICULATIONS :
    An articulation is a unique agreement between two schools to allow you to earn a degree and a diploma in a specific field. While 2+2 agreements are always made up of two years at a college and two years at a university, articulations may require one to three years in a specific college program, followed by two to three years in a specific university program. They are still unique agreements between a particular college and university and provide a streamlined admissions and study journey for you as a transfer student.
