Global Connections (GC) is a project designed to help incoming international students obtain information about York University and Canada before they arrive. By connecting new international students with with current international students called Global Student Liaisons (GSL), this new program bridges the gap across countries, languages, and time zones.

The Global Connections Online Information Sessions show new students what to expect upon their arrival in Canada and at York. Each episode will focus on a specific topic that all international students will need to understand. The sessions will be lead by a team of dynamic Global Liaisons who will share their experiences and their tips for success.

Food is often a major concern for new students, so this session will show you how easy it is to eat according to your tastes on campus. Our liaisons will take you on a tour of York's many restaurants and cafes, and we will tell you how to find the foods for specific diets.

Viewers will be able to ask question during the sessions and even book a one-on-on Skype session with senior student if their questions require a more in depth answer.
