There is no right or wrong answer when it comes to how I feel about this university. Being an international student from India who loves to meet new people and experience new things, coming to Canada and getting to experience it was a huge first step for the endless things that are yet to come. My experience is not about the university itself, but rather what I have done just because I am here.
I feel like I have a home away from home here, even though I’m only in my second year of study, because of the diversity of friendships I’ve made and the cultures I’ve experienced at the university through different student clubs. No matter whether it’s hanging out with them, fighting with them, surviving on coffee all day, or sleeping through classes, it’s because of them. The university also introduced me to a wide range of academic, professional and co-curricular opportunities, which has helped me become more independent and confident. not to mention the opportunity to give back to my community where I live and the volunteering I have done for various organizations.
There is still a lot to say and explore, but in a nutshell, so far so good and without a doubt, I’ll suggest the University of Alberta to everyone.
