Support for International Students
Starting university in a new country is exciting — but it can also feel overwhelming at times. At Queen’s, we want to make sure you have the tools and support you need to succeed both academically and socially.
Whether you’re improving your English, keeping up with lectures, or collaborating with classmates from different backgrounds, there are plenty of free and built-in tools to help you communicate, learn, and feel at home.

If English isn’t your first language, translation and transcription tools can be a game-changer. They can help you:
- Understand lectures, meetings, and group discussions
- Translate study materials and resources into your preferred language
