Step 4: Student Correspondence and Orientations

Providing timely and detailed correspondence is a requirement for all forms of off-campus activity.

For Single-Day Activities and One-Day Trips, detailed information is communicated through your program office, formal orientations or correspondence are not required as part of Royal Roads University's duty of care.

For Multi-Day Domestic or Multi-Day International Trips, an informed orientation for students prior to any travel is mandatory and part of RRU's duty of care. Orientations can be conducted either face-to-face or online. Please see the links below for correspondence guidelines and an orientation example:

International Students participating in an International Activity: Please discuss any international learning opportunities, such as Internships, Study Abroad or International Field Trips, with Immigration Advising. International academic experiences may impact international students' ability to stay and work in Canada after graduation.

Program staff and faculty should encourage students to investigate visa requirements for their country of citizenship in the destination country's government websites.
