Live and Learn in an Ideal Location
In
Cornwall,
you can have it all and what a city it is! The Academy is located in Cornwall,
Ontario, a small town on the USA-Canadian border
besides the St. Lawrence River.
Cornwall
offers a safe, friendly and charming setting for academic, athletic
and social pursuits. You’ll find everything you need to enjoy an exceptional
quality of life. A full-service city with a small town feel, where everything is
just minutes away from your front door.
Cornwall
presents countless opportunities for recreation all year round — be it an
organized sport or a simple walk in the park — and all happening just five
minutes from your doorstep. You can skateboard, inline skate, bicycle, jog, or
walk and you’ll find restaurants and pizza places, music stores, art galleries
and a diverse assortment of shops. And don’t forget the outdoor concerts,
festivals, sporting events, street fairs, community celebrations and museums
all within a short distance from campus. Our city is great for families and
individuals of all ages interested in staying active, staying healthy and
staying involved.
You're
a short walk from it all — a wide variety of dining, shopping, recreational and
entertainment venues.
The City is sprinkled
with over 40 parks totalling 750 acres and recreational facilities
include modern gyms, hockey arenas, Curling Centre, and the gem of the St.
Lawrence — the Cornwall Civic Complex — which includes an arena with seating for
5000, convention facilities and the brand new Aquatic
Centre.
Of course, if you prefer to hit
the links, you’ll want to check out our world-class golf courses. These include Summerheights, where you can choose from two beautiful 18-hole courses, and the
world class Cornwall Golf and Country Club along the
St. Lawrence River. We are an hour’s drive
from two of Canada’s
top major centers, Ottawa
the National Capital and Montreal with its historic center and French culture. Our school is very
accessible and strategically placed within a short
drive of renowned, state-of-the-art athletic facilities,
art exhibits, world best museums and other world-class venues that contribute to
our overall program’s distinctive experience.
We have hardly even mentioned
the river yet! In recreational terms, the
St. Lawrence River means not only boating,
fishing and all kinds of water sports, but also 75 km of waterfront bike trails,
ball diamonds, and more.
Cornwall Community Hospital is an acute care
hospital providing everything from ambulatory to emergency services, from
paediatrics to palliative care. Centrally located on a 25-acre site, the hospital
has recently been renovated as part of an ongoing major redevelopment project.
More than 80 physicians and 25 dentists have a practice in
Cornwall.
When it comes to great
shopping and dining, the people of
Cornwall
find everything they need right here in town. In fact,
Cornwall’s shops and restaurants
attract people from across the region. You’ll love the variety provided by
well-known retailers such as Sears, Winners, Wal-Mart, Shoppers Drug Mart, and
Home Depot blended with a growing number of award-winning local boutiques such
as Pommier Jewellers and Laura’s Flowers. No matter what your shopping preferences
are — indoor malls, big box stores, or main street shopping — we have what
you’re looking for!
