Stressful and helpful. Students can face a hard time financia as courses are expensive

Tips: Courses are expensive so accumulating fees for each semester can be difficult. All this needs to be planned early so this is not a last-minute stress factor for students coming to Canada. Finding jobs can also be difficult. These are the things students should know before joining.

Likes (Quality of faculty): Very helpful and welcoming faculty. Maintain a good rapport with the faculty members as they are very helpful towards the students. Faculty members are considering and willing to help as long as they see you put in effo...

One will experience diversity in culture.

Tips: There wasn't any cultural shift to be honest. But there is a lot of diversity in this University and all the students respect and value every culture around. The atmosphere is really productive. I availed 6k CAD as scholarship on the basis of my Bachelor's result. I am very satisfied with my University.

Likes (Student Life): There are lot of events, workshops, and volunteer opportunities for students to take part in. The unique trait of this university is that it actually give attention to each and every student to h...

It is the way you look at it. If you want to just study well or be just well to study.

Tips: Just be prepared that everything is going to be different from what we have seen in India. Be open to learning anything and leave the attitude we have in India despite being from a Rich or Poor family. Start to learn and explore according to your life goal. Check with the university and the agents how the scholarship works. If you have managerial experience, please work on it and not get enrolled on a foundation course.

Likes (Public transportation): You just need to get the hang of the location where you and the University a...

I like my college very much as there are so much things on campus to do if we get bored

Tips: Since I moved to Canada, there has been a lot of change in my life as I started making new friends. In India, we speak in our local language but in Canada, I have to only speak in English which made me more fluent. I thought there would be a cultural difference but the day before yesterday only our college threw a Diwali party for the students which made us like we were in our own country. I got scholarship on a merit and on IELTS basis which was 45% of the total course fees. I am pretty much sa...

Overall it is a good experience to study in University Canada West

Tips: I would say that one student should understand the requirements of the subject which students have chosen. Because there is a lot of difference in the structure of the study. Please pay close attention to the assignment for eg plagiarism APA etc. For scholarships, students have to maintain 72% or 3 CGPA grades in order to be eligible.

One of the best reputed colleges in British Columbia.

Tips: The college has a very good curriculum. They are very focused on what the students need after completing their Masters. Anyone new joining the college should focus on selecting the correct professor as this is very important. They have very good scholarship programs which help students.

Likes (Indian Food): We have many Indian food options in Vancouver city. There are many Indian stores where we can get Indian groceries easily. Many are worried about the utensils, but we get all Indian utensils here so people should...

UCW: Home away from home experience

Tips: The placement rate at UCW is quite high, I've had the experience to meet and greet with some of the UCW alumni of Indian origin at the time of our orientation, some of whom were placed with PwC and Amazon and for them, the university couldn't have been any better. Be it the quality of faculty or the rapport of university in the Canadian corporate, the university has it all. And how can one forget about academic scholarships, there are plentiful of them! You can even get a single entrant award if...

My university is very good and the professors are also great and helpful.
