Transformative pathways at Humber.
Tips: Humber college has been a transformative journey. The supportive environment and unique community ease the adjustment. I was fortunate to secure a scholarship, recognizing academic achievements and alleviating financial concerns. My satisfaction with the college, the course curriculum and life in the country is high. The quality of education coupled with cultural exposure has made my experience at Humber fulfilling and enriching.
Likes (Quality of faculty): The quality faculty at humber college has been a standout aspect of my academic journey. The professors demonstrate a genuine passion for teaching and expertise in their respective fields is evident in the classroom. What I appreciate most is the accessibility of the faculty. They are approachable, willing to provide guidance and actively engage with students.

Engaging in various extracurricular activities from joining clubs to attending events. The campus facilities, including recreational space and modern amenities, contribute to a vibrant and inclusive student life.

Difficult to find accommodation in Lakeshore.
Tips: The accommodation situation near Lakeshore campus is extremely bad. Make sure that you have contacts already who are willing to help you with the transition. The college will give you many assignments from the first week itself that it will be difficult to focus on any other thing after the beginning of classes. So, the best thing is to apply for part-time jobs and find a place to live before your classes begin. Arrive at least 10 days before the college starts so that you are comfortable and don't have to rush during the college hours.
Likes (Indian Food): You find quite a decent number of options for Indian food but it will burn a hole in your pocket and it is not suggested. But there shall be a difference in taste as compared to the food available in the country and it is suggested that you try everything to not get homesick.
Dislikes (Student Life): The college has little options whereby an international student can approach for help. Moreover, finding decent accommodation in the vicinity of college is a huge task and the rents asked by the landlords are through the roof. The assignments and part time opportunities are very cut throat too.

Placements are not provided at all in Humber College.
Tips: I returned to India after completing my three-year course in Canada. I applied for scholarships but was rejected because they were reserved for Indigenous Canadians. I got minimum-wage jobs despite having interned at a government body in Canada. The college didn't help with placement at all. The job market is unkind to Indians who want to hold a respectable post. The only jobs open to immigrants are blue-collar jobs. Even for on-campus opportunities, only citizens are considered. Paying off my own fees was almost impossible with the meagre salary I earned. I leave it to decision-makers to decide what's best for them, but I wouldn't recommend moving abroad without full financial support and mental health considerations.
Likes (Safety): I felt safe while I was in the city, which has a reputation for proper implementation of women's safety measures. However, there are a few localities where racism is still prevalent. Also, there is a lot of community discrimination internally within Indian immigrants. So, safety can be a concern sometimes.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): My experience was bad as the companies that sponsor visas often offer low-paying, bond-based, or contractual jobs that are not relevant to the field of study. The jobs offered are typically blue-collar and have no relation to the skills of the person being offered the job.

Humber College is a great experience!
Tips: Things to know before joining Humber College, North Campus is that Canada is very cold and you will need to bring a lot of winter clothes before joining this college. Most of the food options at the campus are non-vegetarian. If you're a vegetarian, make arrangements accordingly. If you're non-vegetarian, you're up for a feast. All the best for the rest.
Likes (Student Life): Student life at Humber College, North Campus is full of a mixed crowd. Most of the students studying at Humber College come from diverse backgrounds and countries. For an Indian student, you're not going to feel lonely at all, as the college will have enough people to offer comfort and support to you.
Dislikes (Internships): Despite being a 4/5 on internships, the college promotes and motivates its students to seek internships on their own. However, the course curriculum and teaching pedagogy train its students to be industry-ready at the end of the programme. There are multiple opportunities for internships outside the college.

Multicultural and unique
Tips: It is important that you have an open-minded approach as you will be exposed to a variety of cultures, opportunities and people. Make sure you are safety conscious and be aware of your surroundings when outside campus. Moreover, give yourself time to settle.
Dislikes (Part time work): Part time work options are limited as you need to adhere to your visa regulations and work permit, and the university has a few options although they are somewhat limited. Moreover, it is important to strike a balance between your work and academic obligations which can be somewhat challenging.

Interactional and qualitative academics with industry level assignments.
Tips: The faculty is great, and everyone is very friendly. The professors that teach us here are actually working professionals in their field, so it really helps in bringing forward the real-world implications and perspectives. Humber is pretty hectic otherwise in comparison to other colleges. There is a lot of work, but it really pays off in the end. Overall, I am satisfied with the course and the country.
