King's International
International Students arriving from outside Canada
Immigration Notice:
As of October 20 international students cannot travel to Canada from abroad unless their institution’s COVID-19 readiness plan is approved by the provincial government as per the latest IRCC travel update. King’s and Western's plan has been submitted to the Government of Ontario. While awaiting approval, the following advisories are in effect:
• International students at King’s who are currently abroad will not be allowed to travel to Canada until further notice.
• International students who are in Canada and choose to travel internationally will not be able to return until King’s/Western’s COVID-19 readiness plan is approved.
When travel to Canada is possible, all King's University College students arriving from outside of Canada (including international students and Canadian citizens) are required to complete a 14-day quarantine and must register their quarantine plan prior to, or immediately upon, arrival in Canada. Volunteers will connect with you through the contact information provided in your registration.
If you have questions about quarantine, please contact King’s International at international@kings.uwo.ca
King’s has made arrangements for residence and non-residence students to have access to a transportation and self-isolation service through Maple Assist. Residents can also make their own self-isolation plan, with certain requirements for authorization to move into residence. More information can be found here.
