What Students Say
Likes
- Algonquin College provides a student association centre where one can get solutions to every problem they have. Moreover, the center includes various sub centers like the spiritual center, the AC Hub, the student support center, the health services etc.
- The teaching is very advanced as the college has provided us with a portal named brightspace where we can get our every day study materials and even the exam related stuff. Also, it hires a lot of students in the food services helping them to earn.
- The campus is so vast that we can find a perfect place to sit and interact with different kinds of people including the ones from different cultures and can study a lot about the variations in life. There is a lot to explore.
Dislikes
- Although the college gives us access to almost everything but the other portals related to studies like the person is not provided by them and students have to buy it by themselves and for international students it's a way expensive.
- Some students might be unaware of what services are provided by the students. So, I believe that the college must be aware of the students regarding what kind of help they can expect from the college.
This institution is located in Ottawa which is the Capital of Canada. This place is so tranquil that one can find a lot of peace in this Environment. Algonquin College is considered as one of the best colleges in Canada for which I decided to opt for this College. The admission process went really smooth. As the consultant provided me with every kind of knowledge about this institute. I applied for the offer letter in the Law Clerk program and got the reply in 10 to 15 days.
Course Curriculum
The number of credits in the program is 60. If I talk about the value addition to academics it enhanced my skill development, provided me practical knowledge, academic growth and networking opportunities. The faculty student ratio might be 1: 20. One can get personal attention, classroom interaction in an effective manner.

Campus Life
The campus life here is so good. We can interact with a lot of people. The college respects each and every culture and celebrates every festival including the ones related to other countries. The college organizes a lot of events on campus where students can gather and rejuvenate their minds. I remember one time it was the Diwali fest. The college celebrated it like it was their own culture. I love the way the college welcomes every community and gives them a space to get to know other communities. The infrastructure is really commendable. The college has a recreational center where we can play games like bowling, pool, golf and there's a huge food court beside it. There's a big gym where we can go and exercise. The college has many clubs who organize events.
Placement
Well, I am still studying and haven't applied for any placements. But as far as I know, we have to apply for the co-op to get internships and it is easier to apply via a college account. The overall scope of employment in this area is pretty good.
Accommodation
It was easy for me to arrange an accommodation. I shortlisted some houses through facebook marketplace. But I got one through an instagram account which is a helping hand for all international students. So, I finalized a townhouse and paid the rent from my GIC. The food and related expenses were also done using my GIC. But they didn't cost me much.
Fees
It was an affordable program. It cost me nearly $17300. The payment was done via wireless payment method. The fees were to be paid within 6 weeks. All the expenses were managed by my parents. All of my expenses were seen by my family only.
