Chat With Our Students

Want to know what life is like as a University of Alberta student? Connect with a current student using our Unibuddy platform below and hear all about it straight from the source!

While our students are happy to chat about their university journey, they cannot answer admission-related questions. Instead, please contact the Student Service Centre.

Start a Conversation

Using the platform is easy! Just follow these simple steps:

  1. Select a student to chat with by scrolling through or filter to find someone enrolled in a program you are interested in, or perhaps from the same province or country. 
  2. Click “Chat with Name” then “Start chatting now”.
  3. Fill out a quick profile.
  4. Start chatting!

Ask a Question

Not sure where to start? Try asking any of the following questions:

  1. What is a typical day at university like for you?
  2. How did you choose the program you are in?
  3. What is your favorite spot on campus?
  4. What clubs and activities are you involved in outside of classes?
