At Mount Allison, you'll become part of a tight-knit campus community that is culturally diverse, gender-inclusive, supportive, and welcoming.

While academics is the core of any university experience, at Mount Allison we believe what you do outside the classroom is important too.

Students quickly discover the endless opportunities to get highly involved in extracurriculars on and off campus and say these are some of the most valuable learning experiences of their time at Mount Allison.

Clubs and societies

When you're just minutes away from anywhere you want to be, on or off campus, it makes it easy to dive in and get involved.

Here's a sampling of just some of our 110+ student-run clubs and societies:

Leadership and volunteering

Getting involved in leadership and volunteer opportunities is a great way to develop new skills, gain experience, and make a difference on campus and in the world.

Volunteering

Develop new skills and a new community of friends through volunteering opportunities on campus, in the community, and abroad.

Student jobs

Many students work at Mount Allison both during the academic year and in the summer through paid internships, on-campus jobs, and undergraduate research.

Residence leaders

Each residence on campus has residence leaders to help create the best residence experience possible. Residence leadership positions for upper-year students include residence assistants, assistant dons, and academic mentors. Each residence also has a house executive.

Orientation leaders and volunteers

Orientation plays an important role in welcoming new students to campus and helping with the overall adjustment to life in a new setting. Students play a crucial role in positions ranging from Orientation Chairs to Orientation Crew members.

Peer support

Give back to fellow students through our many peer programs. Academic support opportunities include peer tutors, peer assisted study sessions (PASS), and academic mentors in residence.

Other peer support opportunities include peer health, peer tech support, and peer mentorship support for Indigenous, first-generation, international students, and students with disabilities.

Student government and advocacy
