I applied to 4 colleges: Seneca—confirmed admission Humber—confirmed admission Centennial—Waitlisted. I had discussed this with the institution and the person handling my application, but unfortunately, I didn’t receive any constructive response. I personally feel it must be due to high demand and limited spaces. George Brown—confirmed admission Initially, I was aiming for an MBA from a good university in Canada. But they require 4 years of graduation, and I only had 3 years of graduation. So that option was eliminated. My top priority was the colleges I mentioned. I had a 1-year course at Seneca and George Brown and a 2-year program at the other two. All four colleges, according to the reviews and everything, are good and of good value. So I had no preference as such. The deciding factor was the course of the program. A lot of people I talked to who were in Canada and a few immigration institutions I went to advised me to aim for a two-year program, as it comes with more benefits post-study. I got acceptance from Seneca and George Brown first, but when I got a call from Humber, I knew which college I would like to attend. IELTS, TOEFL, PTE, and the Duolingo English Test, I suppose, are the exams accepted. I took the IELTS, and I was strongly advised to get 7/7.5, given the number of rejections and a lot of students going to Canada, so to keep my application strong, I must get a good band there as well. I got a band 8. There is no such eligibility criterion—just a good band in English language proficiency tests accepted by the college and a strong academic background. The admission process was easy. I didn’t do much personally. The agent I hired pretty much did everything for me. They are great at their job—no issues. I was asked for a few documents, and my application was made. Nothing very complex, and I just waited for the college acceptance. I had to go for the medical exam where my blood test was done and a urine test, which again went smoothly and happened quickly, as slots were booked. This was after getting accepted as a part of my VISA process. I think the only anxious and major part of the entire process, I would say, would be the college admission letter and VISA approval. I got my VISA pretty quickly as well. So it was a pretty sorted process or experience that I had. I applied for the summer intake starting in May 2023. After my exams, that was the only intake I could opt for. Having said that, the application for Humber started almost 10 months earlier because I remember I applied before September 2022 and got the acceptance letter in November 2022. So the admission process—from application to acceptance—took about 2 to 2.5 months. Having said that, I’m glad I got to go in the summer semester because it would have been very difficult to manage during the winters, as it snows harshly in Canada and the temperature is very low—can reach up to -30 degrees Celsius—especially if we are moving from a warmer country that doesn’t experience harsh winters or no winter at all. So, navigating and managing would have become very difficult. Plus, in winter, students tend to get winter depression. I was already emotionally overwhelmed, and then on top of that, Canadian snow and winter. So, starting in summer gave me enough time to settle in and prepare for the winter.  ...Read More

To apply, I submitted a CV, Statement of Purpose (SoP), provisional degree of graduation, 12th degree, marksheets, no backlog certificate, and character certificate. Some courses also required an audition video. My CV highlighted relevant experiences and Extra curricular, while my SoP articulated my academic and career goals. Also, submitted LORS as additional thing but was not required. It is top ranked and reputed among colleges in Canada and was located in Toronto. My program is the one want to base my career on. I am trying to get into Data Analytics or data science, with the skills my course, Business Insights and Analytics, taught me. My experience at Humber College, particularly in the Business Analytics program, was mixed. The campus, Lakeshore, offered scenic views as it is located beside the lake. Despite a vibrant campus life with frequent events, the lack of placements was disappointing. The program's practical focus was valuable, but the syllabus felt brief and included unnecessary subjects. Additionally, the high fees compared to other colleges made it less worthwhile. It is 22000CAD and is not worth the cost....Read More

A life learning experience. This college teaches you time management. People here are from all over the world. So there’s diversity. I'm in my last semester and I think I would miss this college very much. It has some excellent professors who are established lawyers and judges. College has a swimming pool, gym, basketball court. It has a huge library. Recently Barrett family foundation donated 40million dollars to Humber college which would make its infrastructure and faculty more advanced....Read More

Humber is a very reputed college and the program seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. They also had a co-op opportunity which made me choose this program because having Canadian work experience definitely helps when you’re looking for a full time role. I did the entire admission process on my own. My experience was good. Some of the professors were really nice and helpful. The campus was not the biggest one out there but since it was located downtown, it was very easy to get there and there are great networking opportunities in the area. The placement was unpaid which is a total bummer so that is something the college should definitely work on....Read More
