Student review [#46062] for Computer Science
at University of British Columbia

I have never regretted my decision to come to UBC! I enjoyed my time here and continue to do so Here are some of the points that I wanted to bring attention to during my undergrad time:
Organized professors. This may be a result of my luck, but the professors here are exceptionally good. Some are underwhelming, whereas some simply lack the tenured background, but a lot of these professors are spectacular. They definitely make you work for it, but if you have a good working mindset, this shouldn’t be an issue for you!
The campus! Literally one of the most beautiful campuses in the world! This campus is quite a maze of various architecture for you to see if you want to just go exploring. These buildings are a must-see!
The big thing I disliked was the Workload. The workload here is insane at times. It’s hard to keep a social life during your time at UBC. It will pay off for sure, but it becomes quite disheartening at times to have to turn down your friends’ party invitations and say goodbye to any hobbies that you may have. Some courses are extremely dense with material, while others are simply just difficult, no matter what, you will spend a lot of time studying, which definitely isn’t for everyone.
