My Greystone college's experience

I attended Greystone college in Vancouver and now I am searching for my coop work experience. The professors were knowledgeable and passionate about their subjects, and the classes were challenging but also engaging. One of the positive things is that in addition to learning updated topics, you also meet people from different parts of the world. Also there are plenty of extracurricular activities to get involved in as a volunteer, and they also hold job fairs for students to contact companies in the field. Finally, one of the things I would like them to improve is the the curriculum preparation workshops, where they should mention more the reality and difficulties of the market when looking for work. I would definitely recommend this college to anyone looking for a quality education in a supportive environment.
