University Partnerships
We are committed to Canada’s long-term sustainability as an international study destination and to the ambitious students we serve.
In 2006, Navitas was the first to launch an international student pathway program in North America, in partnership with Simon Fraser University. Our other public university partnerships in Canada include the University of Manitoba, Toronto Metropolitan University, Wilfrid Laurier University, the University of Lethbridge, and Western University. We also operate the Global Student Support Program at Queens College at the City University of New York.
While each of our individual partnerships is unique, every one of our public university partners recognizes that with Navitas’ support, resources, and expertise, they can achieve long-term sustainable international student recruitment without compromising student experience or academic quality.
