Concordia University
speciality: Psychology

The psychology course at Concordia university in Montreal is very interesting and well-organized. The professors are knowledgeable and explain concepts in a clear way. I like that there is a lot of focus on real research and experiment. Some classes can be a bit fast-paced but overall the course helps students understand psychology better.
The campus is very pleasant, especially Loyola. I highly recommend this University of you’re looking for a solid psychology degree.

I like my university since people are very friendly however I must say if you are NOT in the business school, you will barely have any resources helping you succeed/ progress into the work life. You will have to do most things yourself. However, if you are in the business school, you will be blessed with many resources and career advise, help and recruiters.

Concordia university is one of the top listed universities not just in Canada but worldwide. The most amazing thing about this university is it is a standalone English speaking university in Montreal that allows non francophone students to enrol and study efficiently. My program is beautifully designed with access to high quality classrooms and faculty members that are available every time to attend your queries. The huge campus of the University including the library allows students to indulge in group work and research programs. The administration staff is super supportive and polite in their conversations. I have had the most amazing experience studying at Concordia so far.

This university is great for its smaller classes. Don’t be discouraged by this! Smaller classes ensure students can get the assistance they need, making learning all the more accessible. Moreover, Concordia has great programs to ensure students get all the additional help they need to succeed. There are always ways to engage with the school and its various programs, whether department-led or student initiative-led. Everyone is kind and welcoming, making delving into higher education a more manageable and enjoyable journey.

It is my last semester at Concordia and I have enjoyed my time here while completing my undergraduate degree in Psychology. Overall, I liked the inclusive environment as well as the access to many helpful resources such as mental health help. I think that Concordia values our opinions as students and ensures that we have a good and healthy learning environment. There are many clubs and events that ensure that’s students are able to come together and enjoy extra curricular activities. While there are many valuable aspects of Concordia, I do think that in terms of course evaluations, we could provide feedback early on to ensure that our feedback has an impact on our experience and not only for future students of the course. Overall, I had a pleasant experience and would recommend Concordia to someone who is looking for a organized, inclusive and supported education experience.

So far I have loved Concordia University, the need to take electives in my program encourages you to branch out and learn more outside of your program. Although it has been tricky to meet people due to the pandemic, there has already been a massive change in the chances of socialization.

Overall, I enjoyed my experience as a Psychology major at Concordia University. I felt like the courses were well-structured and the program did provide students with good resources and seminars related to Psychology beyond the scope of the program itself. I felt like my university experience really helped me develop my critical thinking skills and gave me a good foundation for being disciplined and managing my time well.

I also really appreciated the advisors in the Career Counselling department. They were very willing to help and provided a lot of guidance in the realm of life after graduation.

The only complaint I do have is about the Department of Psychology itself. I found them to be quite hard to contact at times and sometimes unable to provide help in areas pertaining to classes filling up when they were considered program requirements.

I have to say moving from a city known for its beaming sun and sandy shores to a brand new city known for its autumn leaves and white winters was a tremendous change for me. However, settling into Concordia University has been ever so comforting. The kind faces, the understanding professors, and most importantly, the ambiance as a whole has been incredibly supportive.

Concordia has two beautiful campuses. They have diverse and interesting programs as well as available courses for Continuing Educations. Although their second campus is far, classes are enjoyable and most teachers are very skilled and understanding. I really enjoy the multiple aid programs and workshops they offer and their multiple tools for students to land a job through their coop programs and job bank lists.
