University of Waterloo (reviews)

My time at the University of Waterloo is defined by the incredible co-op program, which is giving me two full years of paid, real-world experience. I love my tight-knit engineering cohort. While off-campus life is pretty quiet, I’ve found an amazing community through clubs. It’s a school which challenges you positively and is absolutely worth the effort.

The University of Waterloo is a great school with endless amounts of resources to use to help elevate your skills to prepare yourself for working. Being a university with its own Faculty for Math they have many courses that many other schools would not have. Some of the courses themselves are pretty difficult, and I did struggle with a few math courses, but in the end the pay off is great. One of the main reasons is Co-Op. During your 5 year program you can gain up to 2 years of work experience before you even graduate. That is a big boost that others do not have. With the abundant resources available, you can prepare yourself for graduation in the way you want to, and believe it is best for you. Even with all the struggles I have been through I do not regret my choice.

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.

University of Waterloo is a great university with amazing staff. They offer many extracurricular activities which one can become a part of. I would definitely recommend this university to any person who wishes to learn further.
