University of Waterloo
speciality: Engineering

University of Waterloo is a school that takes pride in academic excellence and the lectures and staff will not compromise it. It could be sometime hard and not flexible for the student but the results and reputation of the school speaks for it.

Great university – surrounded by the brightest minds. Learned a lot just being around so many other smart people. Many great professors as well, some that I still remember to this day. Made lifelong friendships here as well, would highly recommend this university to anyone.

My experience was good and I would definitely make the same choice again. Although it definitely lives up to its reputation of fast-paced hard word, the people I met here and experiences I had were well worth it. They boast their co-op program, rightfully so, however for me personally it was not what I’d hoped it would be. Once you realize that not everyone gets a job that matches their program exactly, you can enjoy the opportunity to gain transferable skills and make decent money.
