About the Program

In partnership with Mount Allison University, the University of New Brunswick (Saint John) is excited to be offering the Graduation Preparation Series program. The program is divided into 2 main levels of 5 sessions each. Level I focuses on making the most out of the final year of university, while Level II helps to prepare participants for life after graduation.

Each session focuses on a specific area and participants are given the opportunity to identify how they can achieve their long and short term goals.

Once Level II is completed participants will have the chance to apply for a paid internship. This is an excellent opportunity to gain work experience and start building professional connections before entering the job market.

1. Must be a fee-paying international student
2. Must be enrolled in fulltime studies*
3. Must be in 3rd or 4th year

*Part-time fourth year students in their final year may be eligible to apply, only if there are no more courses left to take in their program of study*
