Best and trustworthy university for Indian students.
Tips: If you like to come here then check out the programs and hands-on experiences offered at Conestoga. Transitioning here felt like stepping into a new adventure, adjusting to different foods and expressions. Personally, I am thrilled with my Conestoga experience interesting classes, and amazing friends. Satisfaction levels are high with the college.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Canada's PR score is high for me because thanks to accessible pathways to citizenshipn a thriving job market, top-notch quality of life and a friendly, diverse society. My business analytics skills could potentially land me a fulfilling career home for stability, opportunities and stunning scenery.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time work at conestoga offers a mixed bag. On campus jobs are plentiful like libraries, cafes, and labs. But off-campus options require more searching. Balancing work with study demands is flexible. Pay varies based on job type, but expect minimum wage or slightly above.

Opportunities are there, depends on you how you want to utilize.
Tips: Overall it's good. If you really want to study you have opportunities, if you're taking a course just for the sake of visa - coConestogas is way easier compared to other colleges. Still faculty and course structure vary by course to course mine was easy, 60% of assignments and 55% were passing so you can imagine!
Likes (Safety): It is good, you won't ever feel like something is missing in the safety part. Security is available 24 by 7 and everything is just as it needs to be. Other than that CSR provides great support to students especially international students. I like the overall experience.
Dislikes (Internships): College doesn't provide any internship opportunities. You can look for something on your own. Even part time jobs are hard to find (not impossible) in Kitchener due to large number of international students. But everyone finds a job be it part-time or full time eventually.

Graduate Certificate in Construction Management (Optional Co-op) - Batch of 2018

Things are a bit hard to manage. Part-time is hard to get.
Tips: The transition coming to Conestoga college back in 2017 wasn't difficult. I did experience homesickness but I had good housemates. The college has got good facilities. International students are still coming to the college and Conestoga College is well known now compared to before, when I came very few students knew about Conestoga college. Please note that finding part time jobs in Kitchener and Cambridge was relatively easier in 2017 ( when I worked part time) than now. Current students can better comment on that. Just be aware that, if one doesn't have any relatives here in Canada, then one may find it a bit difficult in the beginning as we are starting from scratch but it gets easier with time. The only thing which was a bit frustrating was the fact that my programme had optional co-op, so only top 10 students based on merit were eligible for co-op. Getting co-op work experience makes it far easier to land a field job once you graduate. So, I think if everyone scoring 75% more was eligible for co-op then it would have been a nice thing to have Canadian co-op work experience on resume when they graduate.
Likes (Indian Food): One can find most or nearly all of the Indian food stores here. Eating outside is expensive but one can eat outside once in a while. Other than that, students normally buy coffee and other beverages from Tim Hortons on a daily basis. Groceries are a bit more expensive now than in 2017.
Dislikes (Part time work): Obtaining part time work is difficult nowadays and you have got to do low paying jobs. For many students, it seems because we didn't do any hard work in our home country. But this work will prepare you for better future. Off campus and on campus work opportunities are limited considering the number of international students coming to this city every year. So, hard work and luck are what you will need to find a part-time job, it's easier to find job for someone while it's difficult for others.

Did not enjoy my time spent at college.
Tips: Not very satisfied with the college. I felt that it could have been more engaging and the topics could have been described and explained better. Most staff were employed in 2 or more jobs and they value their time over the students. But this can't be said for all staff as some staff really did make the effort to make students understand the topics.
Likes (Safety): The campus is quite safe for students as there are always security around the facility. And since the campus is quite secluded and is away from the main highway, there aren't many cars coming in and out of the college making it quite safe to move around.
Dislikes (Value for money): The field which I studied was very basic and did not have in-depth knowledge of the course. Plus certain faculty did not provide enough time for the classes which did not provide enough knowledge for students to complete the course. Some classes which were for 3 hours were cut short for 45 minutes.

A fulfilling learning journey
Tips: At Conestoga college, I found a welcoming environment that helped me adjust to a new culture. While there was a bit of a cultural shift, the college support services made it easier. I didn't get any scholarships personally, but the college offers them based on merit. Overall, I'm happy with my college experience, it offers a great education and I like the opportunities in Canada for personal and professional growth.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): Permanent settlement in Canada can be promising. Canada offers various pathways to permanent residence, such as express entry and provincial nominee programs, which can be accessible to international students upon graduation. Many students find a welcoming environment, quality life and a desirable destination for permanent settlement.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Conestoga College is well connected to the city through buses and other public transportation. These buses are affordable and easy to use, so students can get around the city without any hassle or spending too much money. This makes it convenient for students to go to college and explore the city without any problems.

College once strived for excellence but now focus only on business.
Tips: Students should certainly look for any rumours about the college. Conestoga was good when I joined but now the flow of students has increased and employers think twice about hiring someone because of the rumors that students only work and pass with an average grade. Spending more money and getting admission into universities rather than colleges is better. The country is full of immigrants but it is good and safe to stay with Indians.
Likes (Part time work): I did get a part-time job as soon as I laned. I had both on-campus and off-campus jobs. Academics are not like back home. You just have to keep up with the assignment every week, and certainly studying for a few days before the exam is helpful. The average pay in Ontario was $15.75 when I was a student.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Obtaining PR can be challenging due to a high CRS score. The rules for PR are getting tougher if anyone studies near GTA or even works near GTA and the points are less. Other provinces like AB, Montreal, and NS have also changed their policies. It is easy for IT professionals and people in the STEM category as there are specific draws. I'm looking for certain NOC or TEER-level jobs to increase my points. I studied manufacturing and have experience in the same, which comes under STEM, but then I ended up being in the procurement field, which is not under STEM.
