I am currently enrolled in psychology at UofC. Firstly, the application process is seamless, the advisors are exceptionally helpful. You can contact them at any time in regards to class schedules, finding your way around, and admissions, etc. They will tell you what you NEED to take and what you can take as options. I found the classes to be very diverse, fun, and educational. The material is very up to date and relevant to the time. The professors are very lively for the most part and make each class entertaining, although, there are a couple of downsides to some professors, a short-list of the professors I had lacked organizational skills and gave grades back later than they anticipated. However, this is not common from my experience. One of my favourite aspects of the University of Calgary is that there are many opportunities to get to know your classmates, whether that is joining a club, the gym, or meeting up around campus/through classes. I find that there are a lot of international students as I know personally some people from Malaysia, India, and Europe who are in my graduating year. Another thing is that there is an endless amount of research opportunities, there are high-end labs you can participate in if science is your thing and you choose a BA! The lab work is exceptionally fun!
