Renison University College - University of Waterloo

Renison University College - University of Waterloo is an affiliated university college of the University of Waterloo and located in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. Renison's campus is situated on the western border of Waterloo's main campus. Our students are all working toward a University of Waterloo degree, but benefit from being a part of a smaller community that offers degree programs in Social Development Studies and Social Work as well as residence on the Waterloo campus, less than a five minute walk to most buildings on campus. Renison is a place to learn and a place to live, and our students find they love the combination.

Through Renison International Programs, students from around the world can also experience academic life at the University of Waterloo.
