Niagara University has enjoyed a strong binational presence with our Canadian neighbors since its inception in 1856. Those proud cross border ties continue through the present day, as NU is uniquely qualified to welcome Canadian students to its campus given its proximity to the border right on the Niagara River Gorge.
More than 6,000 Niagara University alumni hail from Canada, a majority of whom reside in the Province of Ontario – and we are grateful that more Canadians than ever are studying with us.
Conveniently located between Buffalo and Toronto, this unique location provides a familiar cross-cultural environment on campus!
