Friendly and well-established public university.

Tips: Students should know that being on campus is the best way to get to know about the University as well as the cultural gap and the environment. Campus like Thompson River University East Village and McGill Residence are among the best. Make sure you are paced with clothes as they are definitely cheaper than the North American market.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): The immigration system involves two options such as Express Entry and BC PNP which is a provincial nomination. Those who came after 12th won't qualify for the Express entry option as you need at least an undergraduate degree to apply for permanent residence.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Most of the business faculty is top notch but the accounting department lacks a lot of quality. My major is accounting for the third year. The faculty is not the best as compared to the business department. But I do recommend accounting in general as there are many job options in Kamloops itself.

Friendly campus & multicultural college.

Tips: I prepared few items as a PDF before coming Kamloops. The resume should be according to the Canadian market. It will give students a head up to find part-time positions. - You can work as many hours as you want if you work on campus.

Likes (Safety): Close proximity to law enforcement offices. Panic/Alarm system near campus for emergencies. Public transportation till late night (1 Am in Summer/ 1130 PM winters). Campus services have been improved over the last 2 years with options like Kami Cabs, Ride and Yellow Cabs. The services can be pre-booked.

Dislikes (Internships): Students have the option for Co-op in which you will first pay for the course after that once they get the job offer they will be paying again. A platform will be provided to look for internships and specific jobs. -The co-op course teaches you about mock interviews, cover letters and resume building with job fairs all according to the Canadian market.

Do research about the college and the course thoroughly.

Tips: Before you join this college, do a thorough research on the college and the course you want to take. The city is good for growth during college years, and it's affordable. Make a plan for moving out after graduation. The professors are strict and set in their ways, and it's hard to get them to understand your challenges, especially if you're an international student.

Likes (Student Life): There are many activities and clubs to participate in at Thompson Rivers University. There are also many volunteer opportunities on and off campus, which can help students network. However, there is little to no help provided by the university for students who want to find employment after graduation. This is a serious problem, especially for MBA students, who should have access to co-op opportunities.

Dislikes (Quality of faculty): The quality of the faculty is very low. The professors are old and have not kept up with the times. They don't value your opinion and have horrible grading practices. Out of the 16 courses I have taken, only two professors have been bearable. The professors may be experts in their fields, but they are not good teachers.

I personally like town life that is the reason I chose this college.

Tips: One should be prepared to adapt to everything. You are coming here to become successful. You have to bring tremendous change in your personality and lifestyle to achieve it. The weather is not that bad here as compared to other cities of Canada. Small town-like vibe with friendly neighbours.

Likes (Part time work): I rated Part time job 5 because I got the job within 10 days. Moreover, almost every International student I met in Kamloops has a job so that won't be an issue for anyone who is planning to come to TRU. Minimum wage in Kamloops (British Columbia ) is the highest among all the provinces in Canada.

Dislikes (Public transportation): We only have bus services as our primary mode of transportation. While it is cost effective it lacks reliability. Depending on the bus alone to get you to your destination in time is a bit challenging. To ensure punctuality it is advisable to take at least 30 minds of buffer. It gets worse in winter due to snowfall and blocked roads.

Serene surroundings, Home away from home.

Tips: If you love small towns you should choose this place. Everyone knows everyone which sometimes is annoying. There is rarely anything to do. However, it is a beautiful place. Personally, I love big cities as it might give you more exposure but if you want peace and good scenic beauty Kamloops is a beautiful place.

Likes (Safety): Safety depends on the preferred location one stays. According to me, it is safe as I stay in on-campus residence. But if you are mature to take care of yourself you are good. I faced a safety issue with one of my roommates when I stayed off campus which made me change my accommodation to on campus.

Dislikes (Internships): There are campus job fairs. There is very limited job opportunities in my domain. So, I may consider relocating after my studies. It has very less jobs in Human resources which is what I have observed so far. However if one is smart enough they can land a decent job.
