Mount Royal University - MRU Speciality : Sociology
programme: Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Sociology

This was my only choice for post-secondary education but I originally had my eyes on the psychology program instead of sociology (I do not regret entering sociology). MRU has its fair share of good moments; however I think there are certain professors who shouldnt be teaching because of their biases that leak into the way they teach their lectures. I also did not appreciate how expensive the parking was, especially if you bought a SEMESTER’s worth which was around $400 (a price some people can’t afford to pay). Also there is too much advocation for accessibility and inclusion but no actual action. For example, the recent addition of “all-gender” washrooms but the school just relabeled some of the previous washrooms… disappointing when so much money is being brought in.

I love the class size allowing me to meet people easily, and all the professors are wonderful. The resources as well such as student learning service, peer learning/ mentor and workshops have been very helpful and have all helped me excel in my classes.

I liked how there were areas in every building and floor for studying , or to just sit with friends and relax.Also I enjoy going to the library at mru because the librarians are very helpful for school work.
