Enjoy the lifestyle
of Barrie and Region
The City of Barrie, located on the shores of Lake Simcoe, is
surrounded by rich natural scenery, including sandy beaches,
scenic hills and ecological parks. The Barrie area is one of the
most popular tourist destinations in the province of Ontario.
Within an hour's driving distance of Toronto, and with a
considerably lower cost of living, Barrie is the perfect place for
international students to experience cultural immersion and find
opportunities for professional career development in a friendly
Canadian community.
The Barrie area is Toronto's playground, where getaway
weekends and great shopping are just the beginning. It offers
everything the big city has but in a smaller, greener, safer, and
more peaceful environment.
Barrie is one of seven Georgian College campus locations
– others are located in Midland, Muskoka (Bracebridge),
Orangeville, Orillia, Owen Sound and South Georgian Bay
(Collingwood). Every Georgian College campus offers an
educational experience in a uniquely Canadian setting.
