Strict on plagarism be carefull while doing assignments

Tips: Stressful academics and apart from this everything will be soothing in the college. Very helpful faculty members and good part-time job opportunities, one more good thing about this university is it offers co-op (CPT) which most of the universities won't support.

Focus is important to get the best results here. Apply early.

Tips: Be prepared to start hunting for internships when you arrive. If you are concerned about accommodation costs, look for off-campus options as they are cheaper. Start looking for a part-time job when you get here. The easier part-time jobs will allow you to earn in dollars and cover your rent and food expenses. Focus on your studies.
