U.S. and Canadian Customs

U.S. residents entering Canada only need a valid driver's license or Passport. On your return trip, you will need Passport, Birth Certificate or Driver's License.

Canadian residents will need Passport, Birth Certificate or other government issued ID to enter the U.S.

Students and parents will find that shopping in the Soo can be an international experience. Not only do we have the best fudge in the country (at least we believe so, try it for yourself!), we also offer all the necessary amenities your student will need.

Downtown Soo, MI has a variety of specialized shops and restaurants enabling you to spend an afternoon walking around downtown, enjoying our small city atmosphere. For those of you looking for more of the "city life", Soo, ON has two large malls and a plethora of unique restaurants. Crossing the International Bridge is easy and quick. LSSU also offers the I-Hop, which is a local bus service that travels between the Twin Saults.

The restaurants and business around town love our college students and offer an array of discounts to anyone with a LSSU student ID. For example, a great many pizza places around town offer special deals to our students. And if you live in the dorms, don’t be troubled, because they deliver there too!

If you decide to stay up here in the summer and are looking for employment, the seasonal shops downtown often hire college students for the summer. This is a great way to get involved in the community as well as gain life experience.
