University of Winnipeg



The University of Winnipeg is a Canadian public university located in downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba. The university offers mainly undergraduate programs, although some graduate programs and a continuing education program exist. It was founded in 1938 following the merger of Manitoba College (founded in 1871), the Yellow College (founded in 1875) and Wesley (founded in 1888) College to form the United College (College uni), affiliated college at the University of Manitoba. It became an independent university under its current name in 1967. The University of Winnipeg is aparentée to secondary school: University of Winnipeg Collegiate (Collegiate Institute at the University of Winnipeg).
The University of Winnipeg was ranked in Maclean's magazine by former students in the top ten Canadian universities in relation to their school experiences (Entire Educational Experience). Students are represented by the Student Association of the University of Winnipeg (University of Winnipeg Students' Association), the latter a member of the Canadian Federation of Students (Section 8).



The University of Winnipeg is monitoring the current strike action by the The Professional Association of Foreign Service Officers (PAFSO) and how it relates to the applications and processing times for visas and study permits for university students coming to Canada.
Anyone applying for a visa should anticipate delays and submit their application as far in advance as possible.
Contingency plans are in place to ensure all offices remain open and are providing at least a minimum level of service.
Please note the official letter of acceptance you receive from The University of Winnipeg is valid for twelve months (three Terms).

Check your letter of acceptance to determine what start Terms are available to you.
