Mount Allison University - MTA
speciality: Sociology

I went to Mount Allison in 2007 and it was one of the best decisions I made in my life. The academic programs are varied for a small school like this, allowing students to narrow in on their path while also giving the freedom to explore. The size of the school was a huge bonus as the class sizes were small and there was a closer connection to professors. The discussions were engaging and exciting, making it feel like a progression into higher learning. When many of my friends stayed at home and went to the big city universities, it felt like they were just continuing high school. Mount Allison felt like a step towards a new chapter in my life.
