Now show us what you experienced!
Calling all incoming/outgoing exchange students! We want to see Calgary and the world through your eyes.
Enter our 2022 International Video Contest for a chance to win prizes!
For our incoming exchange students all videos submitted must align with the 2022 theme of “Calgary through your lens.” Did you have any assumptions or expectations before you came to Calgary or went abroad? How has your experience changed or altered your perspective? What aspects of life in Calgary and your studies at UCalgary are different from your home university? We want to know how your time here has changed your worldview on things like education, learning, food, lifestyle, music, culture, and see how you’re experiencing our university, our city and our province!
For our outgoing UCalgary Students all videos submitted must align with the 2022 theme of “Perspectives”. What was your perspective on things prior to your Study Abroad program? How did your experience change your perspective? If you had to make changes in your plans what were those experiences like? What aspects of life abroad and your studies at your host university are different from UCalgary?
Prizes:
- Incoming exchange students: A prize pack of UCalgary swag
- Outgoing UCalgary students: An Indigo gift card
- Shorts/Reels: A prize pack of our partner universities' swag
