Student review [#51218] for Economics and Finance
at Wilfrid Laurier University

WLU was a great university for my degree cause of its COOP advantage ( even though it’s a little competitive to get in). I studied economics and finance, on average the workload is a bit tedious but if you put in the work and plan yourself properly it’ll go better than you expect. It’s very math intensive so make sure you have a good idea of calculus if you want to apply for this job. The only reason for giving the school only 4 stars is just because there is some preference towards the business program which can be a little annoying when our program is more intensive compared to theirs. Overall not a bad study experience you’d meet good people, the campus life is pretty involving and the location makes it easier to find different things around to do. Obviously, some times are difficult but that’s just university so if you put your head down and learn some serious amount of time management and planning you’d get around pretty well.
