Join the International Centre for our weekly Coffee Chats—an informal opportunity to connect with our team, meet other students, and engage in meaningful conversations in a welcoming environment. Each session features a different theme, offering students the chance to share their experiences, ask questions, discuss topics that matter to them, and provide feedback in a relaxed setting.

Coffee Chats are designed to foster connection, build community, and ensure student voices are heard. Highlights and key takeaways from each conversation will be shared in our newsletter so that insights, resources, and ideas can benefit the broader student community. Whether you're looking to meet new people, learn about campus resources, or simply enjoy a conversation over coffee, everyone is welcome.

The International Student Immigration Plan is a personalized planning tool to support international students throughout their undergraduate and graduate degrees at Queen’s University.

The plan is intended to encourage proactive planning, informed decision-making around study permits, health care and long-term student success from arrival through graduation. 

Developed with International Student Advisors and campus partners, the plan helps students connect their academic goals, career development, and immigration responsibilities into one coordinated pathway. Through structured yearly milestones, students are supported in building confidence, maintaining immigration compliance, accessing campus resources, and preparing for post-graduation opportunities in Canada.

In this workshop, learn how to support your immigration goals and journey from one of our international student advisors. 

Registration open now.
