OUR PLACE
LOCAL HOSPITALITY, GLOBAL REACH
The best way to explore ADC is to come visit us in person or book a virtual visit. You can sit in on a class, meet faculty and current students, participate in community worship and lunch, and tour the Town of Wolfville. Whether in person or online, we can't wait to meet you!
CAMPUS
Acadia University has been ranked as one of the top 10 most beautiful campuses in Canada by HuffPost. So beautiful, in fact, that we often hear the phrase “I visited the campus and fell in love!” With sprawling, green, 250-acre grounds, we are home to historical buildings dating back to 1838 – which means ivy-covered walls and beautiful study spaces – and even a student-run farm that supplies vegetables direct to campus.
WOLFVILLE
Nestled in the heart of the lush Annapolis Valley, Wolfville’s modern rural community is quaint, inviting, and loaded with charm. Visiting some of the mainstays of our downtown core is a weekly rite of passage for Acadia students – whether you're grabbing a latte at a local café, or a delicious meal at one of the town's renowned restaurants, you'll almost certainly see a familiar face or make a new friend. Hospitality is part of who we are, and we’re committed to making our community a place where everyone feels at home.
NOVA SCOTIA
Your new home in Nova Scotia awaits where the valley meets the sea. Although we’re one of the smallest provinces in Canada, culture is the heartbeat of our Canadian East Coast lifestyle. With plenty of local attractions across rural communities and bustling urban Halifax, the beauty of 13,300km of rugged coastline, and the richness of deep historic roots, Nova Scotia has the best of it all.
Acadia Divinity College recognizes that no building can exist without the land on which it rests to provide for, support, and uphold it. Prior to the founding of Acadia University, before the town of Wolfville, before the beginning of Nova Scotia, or the nation now known as Canada – this land was and still is Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaw people to whom the land was entrusted by the Creator. It is on this land that our building now rests.
Alongside Acadia University, ADC seeks to walk in a good way with our Indigenous hosts, friends, and neighbours.
