University of Calgary
speciality: Law

University of Calgary was a diverse school that had a place for everyone. They had programs and a faculty for everything. The law and society program there really helps prep students looking into a career in the law field. The only thing I would say I disliked about this school was that because it was so big, getting around from one building to another could be time consuming, depending on wheee your classes were. But overall it was an amazing school, has the best experience and would highly recommend.

Altogether, the university for me has been partly stressful and partly fun, university of Calgary has been able to balance out every aspect of my life, from the gym, to perfect study areas, to a number of food courts, to study sessions, fairly productive classes etc. I personally would totally recommend it to anyone looking to come.

The best part about studying at the University of Calgary is the community. My faculty is extremely tight knit and there are always tons of social events and networking opportunities to meet other students and professionals in the field. Further, they use an innovative approach to teaching and learning which results in course offerings that are only available here.

The University of Calgary is a diverse and strong academic institution that offers a wide range of programs and courses. The programs appeal to anyone’s interests in the study, and have dedicated professors and resources to help support your studies. One of the best in Canada, and even the world! University of Calgary also has a great support staff, and a vibrant community and student culture.

In the pandemic, school has been hard for everyone, and I believe everyone everywhere is just tolerating it. Most learning is done online and it is difficult to learn like that on some days. I know of the student services that my uni offer but I never had to use them. There’s writing help and other things, you can see that stuff on their website. But when dealing with my mental health I struggle with getting work done and on time and there’s no student help for that, you’re left at the mercy of your profs. Most of my professors have been understanding, although I tell them I couldn’t do it or I got sick, I can never admit that it’s cause of my mental health. Your learning experience can be good if your prof is understanding and caring and has a good syllabus for the class. I think it is worth it if you’re passionate/interested in what you’re studying even though you’re unsure of what career path you want. The only issue is the cost, and over the years it’s just increasing and that becomes discouraging. Like I said it’s bearable. You just gotta tolerate it and that goes for any post-secondary school.
