Graduate Certificate in Construction Management (Optional Co-op) - Batch of 2018
3.3
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.

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.

Journey with conestoga is amazing. A lot to learn.
Tips: Moving to a new country gives a shift in culture. Things may seem unique, but it is a cool experience to learn and appreciate diverse ways of life. Students often get financial support through scholarships. They can visit the university website and share grades and personal stories. I am happy at the university, satisfied with the course and content with the country.
Likes (Safety): Campus security provides emergency call station and safety escorts for students during late hours. There are also safety workshops and resources to improve awareness. One positive experience was a local cultural event in the city. Attending this event not only allowed me to embrace the city's diversity but also helped me make new friends with similar interests.
Dislikes (Student Life): My college day is going to the classes, study sessions, and break with friends. I try to balance academics and personal time to make my experience better. What I enjoy the most is the freedom to explore new things, make friends and engage in extracurricular activities. There are various events like cultural festivals, sports competitions and seminars organized on our campus. Our college has many student clubs covering sports, arts, and academics.

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.

Conestoga college offers a journey to excellence.
Tips: Conestoga College offers various scholarships and financial aid opportunities to students based on merit, financial need, or specific programme criteria. The allowance for scholarship can vary from a few hundred dollars to a more substantial amount, depending on the eligibility criteria. I am satisfied with the college.
Likes (Value for money): The tuition fees at Conestoga College are, in my opinion, justified given the quality of education and resources provided. The college offers a wide range of programs with experienced faculty and modern facilities, ensuring that students receive a comprehensive learning experience. Conestoga College has a strong focus on employability, offering job placements and connections with industries.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Conestoga College connects international students with companies that offer visa sponsorship for work. These companies often seek candidates in teaching, healthcare, engineering, and business fields. Entry-level salaries usually range from $40000 to $60000 annually, with chances for growth. Conestoga's support services can help students find these opportunities and navigate the visa process.

Dynamic Living at Conestoga
Tips: The transition has helped me to become more independent and given me a chance to explore options and learn more about different cultures and Canadian work. It was very difficult in the beginning due to no available jobs but things started becoming stable once I got a job and that helped me to build my confidence and survive in this beautiful place.
Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation is available for downtown kitchener from Conestoga Mall and Fairway Starion. It is affordable and convenient but should be more frequent. However, since I live close to the campus I do not rely heavily on public transportation for college purposes.
Dislikes (Quality of faculty): Few faculty members are approachable, however, few do not dedicate themselves to the study as it is only their part-time job and does not justify their work or our study. Moreover, classes are scheduled at different times of the day and do not have a consistent flow due to which student work-study balance is affected. Though the priority is studies, if the schedule is well balanced it would help students to get a better shot at studies.

I felt the education was no different than India.
Tips: Definitely there's a cultural shift and as an Indian, it was easy to adapt because we usually follow most of the rules but the system here is very liberal. I didn't take a scholarship. In terms of satisfaction, I would rate my college 7 out of 10, course 8 out of 10 and country 8 out of 10.
Likes (Public transportation): Student housing is available close to the campus. So, we do not need to rely on transportation. Also, we have 24*7 public transit for most of the places. The campus I studied is close to all amenities. There are two more universities in the same region which lets you get along with a lot of people.
Dislikes (Value for money): The quality of education is no different compared to what I learnt in India. The only reason students study here is to get a work permit. We have to manage both studies and part-time so it is quite challenging and students pursuing 2 year courses find it hard to save for 2nd year fee.

Do your own work and respect academic integrity.
Tips: This college has a good name in the market and provides a good education. However, they have a zero acceptance policy for copied work and even take action towards students who cheat on their assignments and in their exams. Overall this college provides good infrastructure, classes and atmosphere to study.
Likes (Safety): In the city, we feel safe and can leave our houses at any time. No matter if it is midnight. We sometimes find some homeless people but even if we do, they are of no harm they don't say anything at all. You can roam around freely irrespective of your age, sex, race.
Dislikes (Public transportation): Frequency of public transport is very less. On weekends it is worst, it takes double the time to reach at destination on weekends. As a student, we rely on public transport only and generally prefer weekends to do extra chores, but this transport system doesn't help much.

A lot of Indians in the campus. Overall, good experience.
Tips: Indian students in this college are in big numbers. People from various parts of India stay at the campus while some live off campus too. University provides work to students and pay high wages. All the faculty members are friendly and caring.
Likes (Part time work): The pay for the hour is good and they pay instantly. People hire students with talent and experience. All students are getting paid on time with all incentives. People in Canada value work so they never change their behaviour with employees.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): There is competition in the job market and mostly there are no vacancies so we have to wait for a while. Before you start finding jobs make sure you prepare a CV which contains all your achievements. It will make your work easy and it’s good for the interviewer. Right from your academic days fill your cv with activities.

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.

Tips: Adapting to Conestoga was smooth, with enriching cultural experiences. I secured a scholarship through the university website, covering tuition and providing a monthly allowance. Overall, I'm highly satisfied-great courses, supportive professors, and a welcoming country make my college journey enjoyable.
Likes (Safety): Navigating campus life at Conestoga is great. My day involves interesting classes, group projects, and breaks in cosy spots.

Conestoga provides a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere that makes college enjoyable.

Quality of faculty is amazing.
Tips: The students should know that they are going to have the best two years of their lives. They will have to work hard and do everything on their own. They can’t depend on their professors for everything but in the end it will be all worth it. After coming here I have become more independent and have learned to do everything on my own which I think whoever is planning to come here, especially from India needs to learn eventually.
Likes (Part time work): The student life here is very happening and chill. In between classes, we can go to the gaming zone where we have table tennis, video games and all sorts of other games. There are very interesting events that the college organises for example hackathon which is very fruitful for the career that I’m involved in. So all in all we can learn and have fun at the same time and that’s why the student life here is so good.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The faculty in the college is very friendly and open to discussions. The classes are more of an interaction and they make learning interesting rather than boring. The professors are always accessible and ready to answer our doubts that’s why I’m giving a 5 on the quality of faculty.

There are many scholarships available and when I moved to Canada I applied for a scholarship and luckily I got one. If you want one then contact your college. I am satisfied with the college as well as the country.

Tips: Well, it was a pretty good experience overall. With a life-changing experience for me in terms of the quality of education with a lot of practical knowledge. There were not so many cultural differences but it was a life-changing experience & I didn't get any scholarship but it is not that costly for a middle-class family in India & you can easily pay for that after the completion of your education.
Likes (Public transportation): I would say pretty good experience with public transportation which perfectly connects with the rest of the city. It is quite affordable as well with good weather around the city. I would say in the long run you need your vehicle, especially a car if you want to work as well.
Dislikes (Student Life): The college has a pretty decent campus in Bradford with decent open areas around the classrooms. We have a good space where you can chill with your friends in between the classes & I don't generally attend any kind of events because of lack of time. There are no so specific student clubs as well.

Good college for PG Diploma
Tips: The only difference I found was that exams, quizzes, projects, and assignments were all open book exams. At least for my course so if you think that is a good thing and start copying others' assignments you are cheating yourself and will have to learn everything the hard way around.
Likes (Indian Food): I am from India. Most of the time I cook for myself but at times when I feel tired or don't wanna cook, I go out to eat. So Toronto has a lot of Indian food options. You name it and it's there. The pricing is fair excluding some restaurants and most serve decent quality food at reasonable prices.
Dislikes (Safety): Public safety in Toronto is a big concern. The college has its own security which is good until you are in college. But once you are out on the street there are lots of homeless people and crack head so have to be very attentive. Most don't harm you but some try to extort money. There are multiple incidents that you can read about on the internet.

Tips: Everything is good. I am not sure about scholarships as I just started my international student journey. For scholarships, call the college toll-free number or send an email related to whatever kind of scholarship you are looking for. University, courses and college are worth it, but I am not sure how much the country is good for international students.
Likes (Safety): It's all safe, I travel during the night and I haven't felt threatened till now though my class timing is from 6 pm-10 pm. It's safe to travel in Canada as I have felt till now. Ttc, subways are all safe, but there are people who cannot be trusted, so try to stay away from people you don't know.
Dislikes (Part time work): It's hard to find part time in winter, no matter how much experience you have in your home town. It's hard to find part time but easy to find full-time. Postgraduate students have tough time managing their studies with part time and full-time, it's difficult to manage both.

George brown being a mediocre college!
Tips: To get admitted in this college you'll need a minimum IELTS score of around 6.5. When I came here I knew that there'll be an Indian community around and I will somehow be around people that I know. But, the people staying here for a long have already transitioned and you might find yourself in situations in the beginning where you'll feel left out but that is what will shape you up and make you accept the diversity. So, be open to accepting diversity. I'll suggest engaging with student communities, and being part of social groups to know more about the country and culture if you are looking forward to working and settling here. Overall, I'll say that the college is neither too good nor too bad however if you are having other good options don't miss out on them.
Likes (Post study jobs): If you are competent as a student you'll definitely end up getting a job but that doesn't guarantee the package that you'll be getting here. I've seen students who have graduated from this college working at Tim Hortons too and students in some good corporates as well. I've rated high only because Canada as a country has requirements of jobs but you need to brush up on your skills while in college.
Dislikes (Value for money): I personally don't think that the hefty charge that is taken as a tuition fee justifies the opportunities a student has when it comes up to Canadian marketplace. The college does have some reputation among the employers but it still is not very much as it should have been. Also, I wouldn't say that the quality of teaching here is top notch. Some professors can be a bit rude here and won't respond to your queries and emails which can be a bit harsh on you as an International student and they feed you information that is outdated. So watch out, the university might seem academically oriented but now you know what lies beneath!

Make the most of it. Find a job that does not tire you a lot, otherwise, you will not have time for other stuff.

Likes (Internships): We get job placements and opportunities for internships. I came back to India and I am going back, you get paid for doing internships and putting your time and effort and whole heart into the project, your work is rewarded and a lot of scholarships are provided.
Dislikes (Student Life): There's a lot of bullying happening which has made me suffer a lot, I was bullied for my weight and the fact that I belonged to a different race altogether. I did get over it after a point but it was mentally disturbing and the college isn't strict on ragging.
