St. Francis Xavier University

St. Francis Xavier University has a reputation as one of Canada's finest undergraduate universities.Our small, supportive campus offers academic and social benefits that you simply won't find at a larger school.

Xaverians feel a deep sense of connection to both the university community and the incredible town of Antigonish. And with the support of a community like StFX behind you, there's really nothing you can't achieve.

Once on campus, you will feel it immediately: a sense of belonging. Our campus is more than beautiful. It's cozy. It's comfortable. It's inviting. You will feel like campus, and Antigonish, is your home. And you will come to care for it like home.

Our smaller classes foster lively debate and discussion. So when you are exposed to new ideas, you will be able to talk through them with your classmates, resulting in a deeper understanding of the concepts.

At StFX, you are never just a number in our classes. Here, your professors know you by name, engage with you one-on-one, and genuinely care about your understanding of the material. And our faculty and staff, likewise, are able to take an active role in your success.
