The main campus is bordered to the north by the ByWard Market district, to the east by Sandy Hill's residential area, and to the southwest by Nicholas Street, which runs adjacent to the Rideau Canal on the western half of the University.

However, every Australian citizen entering Canada for less than six months will still require an eTA which can be purchased online. More information for Australian citizens and other nationalities is available on the Government of Canada's website.

The University of Ottawa also provides some advice on visas, which can be found here.
