Founded in 1838, Acadia University is one of the oldest and most respected liberal arts universities in Canada. Located just a one-hour drive from Halifax, Nova Scotia, Acadia is an integral part of the quintessential college town of Wolfville, overlooking the Annapolis Valley and the Bay of Fundy. When you step onto campus, you enter a world of opportunity. Our mission is to provide a personalized and rigorous liberal education, promote a robust and respectful scholarly community, and inspire a diversity of students to become critical thinkers, lifelong learners, engaged citizens, and responsible global leaders.
 
Just steps beyond Acadia’s campus you can explore a lavish natural environment that includes the world’s highest tides, vineyards, woodland trails, farmlands, bustling markets, quaint shops, art galleries, a thriving live theatre scene, the tidal mudflats of the Bay of Fundy (one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World), and some of the most delicious culinary experiences on Earth. What's more, our location in the heart of Annapolis Valley provides students with access to a variety of ecosystems often used in field-based research and course work, providing a rich balance of both indoor and outdoor laboratory experiences.
 
Work closely with professors, volunteer within the community, study abroad, enjoy world-class co-op placements, and engage in real-world research. Acadia’s four faculties – Arts, Pure and Applied Sciences, Professional Studies, and Theology – offer more than 200 degree combinations across undergraduate and graduate programs.
