McMaster University is working to provide assistance to students following the sudden announcement made by Saudi Arabia over the weekend.

Approximately 150 Saudi students are enrolled in McMaster Faculty of Health Sciences programs, particularly post graduate medical training. A further 40 students are enrolled in other undergraduate and graduate programs across the campus.

The University is working with students to determine options and to share other information with a goal of mitigating the impact of this changing situation.

Students who may be impacted by this change may reach out to the Office of International Student Services or the Faculty of Health Sciences.
