Since 1838, Acadia University has challenged students to excel both in and out of the classroom. Located in Wolfville -- 100 kilometres from the provincial capital of Halifax -- the university is nestled in the Annapolis Valley, one of the most beautiful parts of Nova Scotia. The university’s small-town location and predominantly residential character encourage personal growth through close contact with fellow students and professors, participation in intramural and intercollegiate activities, and a wide variety of cultural programs.  Students can start their studies in September and January.
