International students holiday party
For international students who can't return home for the holidays, Concordia hosts an annual holiday event. Our 2011 event saw close to 300 international students and alumni in attendance.
Now an important tradition at Concordia, this event fosters a sense of community and instills a fundamental sense of belonging for our international students. For many, it is their first time away from their families and their first winter in Canada. Home can be quite far away—literally across the globe.
The event is organized by the Concordia University Alumni Association, Advancement & Alumni Relations and CISA.
