The Open Arms Committee (OAC) is a student-run organization at Schulich with the purpose of facilitating the transition of both undergraduate and graduate exchange students to life at Schulich.

Throughout the year, the OAC organizes events for exchange students and keeps them informed of what is going on socially at the School and around the city. In addition to these efforts, each exchange student is partnered with a Schulich student “buddy” who is available to answer any questions or concerns throughout their stay.
