- It has a good infrastructure. Has a lot of class rooms. Not strict in class rooms. Has a student concern department. Has a big food court.
- Also this college has a separate department for students, those who are suffering from mental illness like stress, depression etc, they would give them free counselling and make the students better.
- They also conduct different programs and festivals during the college hours. Those include party in the weekends, throw the ball on principle and Halloween.
Dislikes
- There's some dislikes about this college. The capacity of the college is very low compared to the student intake.
- The intake was high in 2022 but the college couldn't handle the population. And the bus are frequently cancelled during my time. So, I have to book a ride to reach the class. And most important thing was the housing.
- During post covid, housing and part time job was a nightmare for the new students. Even though college helped some students to get housing but most of the students were struggling to get their part time job in Peterborough. Due to this, some of my classmates took a house in GTA area and came from there to college everyday.
Campus Life
- In Fleming we have 3 locations. One is in Peterborough, Lindsay and the last one is in downtown Toronto. As it is mentioned in the question, we have all the facilities and also a pub and a bar inside the campus.
- The major sports event is football, hockey, and baseball. We have a student counsel named Fleming SOC, they are for the students. They will organize some events like fund raising for charity etc.
- The major campus festival is the Halloween party that takes place on October 31st. We don't have any extracurricular activities like India. But they have football, baseball and hockey clubs.
Accommodation
- As I mentioned, I got my room from India. That family was from my state, so it was easy for me to pass the early stages. I just posted on the FB market page and they contacted me.
- My monthly rent was $375 with all inclusive with high speed internet, laundry and kitchen, etc. There are scams going on. We should pay $50, just to see the room.
- There are some facebook groups, we just post a ad regarding the rental, landlords will DM us. If we pay, they will just disappear. It was just a KM from my house and 5 min by bus.






Dislikes
- The subjects were great, but the faculty fell short. They only read from slides, and their presentation materials on the portal were poor. So for subjects like CSR wherein you need to rely on the material uploaded on the portal there is nothing.
Campus Life
Parties are organized, but the college lacks a good library with up-to-date books. Additionally, you will be required to purchase books costing between 250 and 300 CAD.
Accommodation
575 CAD for a twin sharing room including all facilities. Many houses in Peterborough are in poor condition due to more occupants than legally allowed.
Campus Life
Campus is the biggest drawback of this college, it has a small campus, just 2 floors.
Accommodation
For sharing room in Brampton it's approx $500 per month.
Campus Life
It was fun but not as much interactive as you’d expect. I think university would have more to offer. For a college it has minimum.
Accommodation
Accommodations are based off what you can afford. I lived in shared because I wanted to save money but if you want a room for yourself than it’s at least $800 or more.
Likes
- It is very well reputed college in the field of project management and gives practical knowledge of the field.
- Quality of education is phenomenal as well as applicable in industrial environment. Professors have previously served as project managers in various industries which provide students in depth knowledge and applications of strategies in real world.
Dislikes
- Tight deadlines on submissions makes it difficult for students to meet the deadlines along with part time jobs. Moreover, in person lectures are better than online lectures as it helps to interact with classmates and professor in person.
Campus Life
Campus life is amazing as they always celebrate all the festivals and arrange events every now and then.
Accommodation
Sharing room are somewhere between 500 and 700 whereas private room starts from 700 and can go upto 1000 dollars.
Likes
- I like the overall Canadian education system and the way this college treats their international students. I liked Canadian culture, student life and especially the location (Peterborough), as it is one of the most scenic and beautiful town in Ontario province. The social life, insurances, accommodation and services are quite affordable there as compared to other cities. Honestly, my college was best to have an international student experience in a different country as it taught me a lot of things that I would not have learnt if was living in a place where all Indian community is present like Brampton etc.
- Mainly because I am an Architect from India and wanted to establish my own designing firm. So I decided to persue a PG diploma in Project Management that would enable me to start and complete a project on time and in budget. It is an important skill to lean, how to manage your project. Also I wanted to be in a college, where i could experience international zone and Canadian culture and education system that would allow me to jelup in the community. So that was the main reason why I chose this course and mainly this college.
Dislikes
- What I dont like about this college is the strict and zero tolerance environment. You cant really do one single mistake which will affect your grades and overall performance. One more thing that I did not liked is the number of homeless people wandering every time on the streets that sometimes make it difficult for the student to travel and engage with any kind of job. I too have many experiences that i would like to share personally later on.
Campus Life
The campus life was full of creativity, enthusiasm and open mindset students. I learned a lot in campus activities like leadership, creativity and right execution of visualizations. There is a club called SCA(student council association) that deals with all kind of inhouse activities and college fun activities like sports, indoor games, quizzes, competitions, cultural fests and orientation etc. I was the head of the sub club called as VIEW FINDER that involves students with talented skills of filmmaking and photography. Though I never been to library, but its one of the quietest place in college that offers a private conference room if anyone wants to do a group meeting or assignment. Even the library has a unique collections of books. PRO TIP - Always use Tim Horton's WIFI as it is more effective and catches good connection and also used by few.
Accommodation
When I landed here in Canada on May 5, I already booked a house in Brampton where I stayed for 3 months then I went to Peterborough. It was a shared accommodation, with 6 people living in the house. The rent was $450 on sharing basis as I was sharing a room with a boy. Here in Canada, to rent a house or room, a student needs to pay first and last month rent.
Likes
- This is College was nearest to my location, so I chose this college after coming to Canada and left the previous college.
Campus Life
They have a library Wi-Fi but there are no sports facilities because the campus in Toronto is like really small. It’s just two floors of the building. But they organize field trips to various places.
Accommodation
I stayed at a rental basement in Brampton but nowadays the basements are too expensive like you have to pay $500 in a sharing room and utilities extra.
Likes
- This college had the program supply chain management which was of my interest and this is a very reputed college, therefore I chose Fleming College.
- The college was very friendly and it had the most amazing and beautiful campus.
- The faculty is great, experts in their fields and supportive. Fleming College is located in Peterborough, Ontario and it is a very small town.
Dislikes
- It should give more campus jobs. Since Peterborough is a small town, the part time jobs that students apply for takes some time. If students had more and more jobs in campus it would be really easy for the students to look for a job.
Campus Life
The campus of Fleming College Sutherland campus is the most beautiful among the other campuses and the biggest one. We have a very well equipped gym and swimming pool which has free membership for Fleming students.
Accommodation
I rented a house in Peterborough city near my college.
Accommodation
Accommodation is not too expensive nor too cheap. You can easily find good and cheap accommodations near the college.
Fleming is an amazing college. I heard about it from my friend and read it on the internet about its rankings.
Accommodation
My accommodation was done by my agent and I'm glad it was great and I stayed with my roommates until graduation. Living in sharing and including groceries in Peterborough will cost approximately $600 per month. However, it depends on how you spend on your other needs.
I chose this university because of the curriculum and they also provide 4 months field internship.
