6 P/ c& L5 U8 S$ NMount Allison is a primarily undergraduate liberal arts university with a controlled enrolment of approximately 2,250 full-time students. It is a compact scholarly community designed to foster excellence in teaching, mentoring and student-centred research in small classes, with a student-faculty ratio of 15 to 1. The strength and reputation of this nurturing environment is partly reflected in a number of key areas, including a commitment to the environment, globalization, public service and citizenship, and creativity in the arts and sciences – all underpinnings of its Strategic Statement. The results of careful planning are manifested in Mount Allison’s having the largest number of Rhodes Scholars, per capita, in the British Commonwealth, and one of the largest endowments, per capita, among universities in Canada.

Mount Allison is committed to an increasingly global educational environment, through collaborative research, cross-cultural clubs, and academic student exchange and study-abroad programs. While achieving its goal of a 10 percent international student population, the university is enhancing the services it provides for international students, including a president’s committee on international students, a Senate committee responsible for internationalization policies, an international student advisor, a vibrant international orientation process, and an International Centre in the new Student Centre to be opened in 2008. A strong local World University Service of Canada chapter and our Society of All Nations offer international support and perspective. Academic credit is available for student-initiated international experiential learning. This is a valuable enhancement to an extensive suite of for-credit exchanges and study abroad programs, including the prestigious Killam Fellowship. Exchange opportunities for study and research (14 programs in 11 different countries) are complemented by four study abroad programs in the United States, France, China, and India. Our Leadership Mount Allison program includes a Global Connect option that provides international leadership opportunities. Mount Allison has recently partnered on two NAFTA North American Mobility Projects, increasing the movement of students and faculty between Canada, the United States and Mexico over the next four years. Finally, Mount Allison is committed to the involvement of its faculty and staff in the networks that support international education in Canadian universities, including the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada and the Canadian Bureau for International Education.
