New beginnings in New Brunswick
When you move to New Brunswick to start at UNB, you’re getting more than the programs, faculty, and facilities we’ve become known for—you’re getting an experience.
Our cities give big energy, but in a way that still feels familiar and homey (FOMO optional). With walkable downtown cores, you’ll get out there and find new go-tos: cafes, restaurants, concert venues, art galleries, and museums. There’s always something to do!
If nature is calling your name, don’t worry, New Brunswick has something for you too. Right in Fredericton and Saint John, you’ll find Odell Park and Rockwood Park, both close to campus and ready for you to explore. Hiking, skiing, biking, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, and camping—and that’s not even the whole list.
Whether you’re a natural nature lover or just getting into the outdoors, we know you’ll love it here as much as we do. Computer Science grad Sharon Kennedy said, “I could have studied anywhere, but I chose New Brunswick, and I didn't move halfway around the world just to sit in a classroom.” She now lives and works in Fredericton and considers it home.
No matter which campus you will be settling into, life in New Brunswick will give you opportunities to explore, both your new home city and yourself. Do more here.
