OU Fusion & Parade of Chamions

Each year, OU Fusion brings Ottawa University students and the wider Ottawa community together for a welcoming evening of connection and celebration. New and returning students can meet local businesses and community organizations while enjoying informational booths, games, and music. The evening also features the Parade of Champions, celebrating the outstanding achievements of students across Ottawa USD 290.

More than a back-to-school event, OU Fusion reflects the close relationship between Ottawa University and the city it calls home. Students can discover places to shop, eat, work, volunteer, and build relationships, while community members have the opportunity to welcome their newest neighbors. It is one of the many ways Ottawa helps students feel at home from the moment they arrive!
