- I liked the supportive learning environment at my university. null
Dislikes:
- One of the things I disliked was the curriculum of the courses, it was pretty basic and easy, did not really add a lot of value to my knowledge. null
Campus Life
School of Continuing Studies has one allocated building in the York University Keele Campus. It is a big building with nice infrastructure and big class rooms with projectors. The students of School of Continuing Studies also have the access to the Library of York University and the Tait McKenzie Centre which has all the recreational activities like gym, swimming pool etc.
Hostel
I have been staying in a private room in Mississauga, paying 800 CAD/month. A student can easily get a shared accomodation for about 400-600 CAD/month.

- What I like about York University is that it has a great faculty and an amazing infrastructure. The university is so big it took me a whole week to navigate. I have seen multiculturalism here. I totally got all the feels of Canada. null
Dislikes:
- But there is one thing I dislike the most and that is no extracurricular activities for students of the school of continuing studies building at least I haven't been part of any till yet. They are just restricted to teaching but then I see so many events happening in other buildings, and honestly, students of this building feel left out. null
Campus Life
There are many campuses. I don't have an idea. There are so many libraries and eating places at York university. I have hardly seen York organising fests or events because they haven't done anything for us till now. Though the university has an amazing gym and pool and playing activities.
Hostel
I live in a shared room with my friend and I pay $550 for it. I believe I am paying a very good amount because I have checked other places are too expensive. A feasible option is definitely sharing a room with someone you are comfortable.
Likes:
- Good program and under budget plus good location easy to travel since subway at the university to ise plus bus standes and housing is also good plus food .
- I like my colleges infrastructure and how is it was to travel around Toronto due to travel facilities around campus. Also the food available there is very good since there are alot of options and it is cost effective. Also walmart is very for buying groceries and online groups for finding housing is very helpful there. null
Dislikes:
- Nothing everything is good except from snow that can be very handful and not good. Try layering and keep a helathy diet. Plus carry multi vote with you since you don’t get many sunlight during winters and it gets night around 4:30 pm also there is take care of your food since there is chances you can loose wait there due to walking in classes. null
Campus Life

Hostel

Likes:
- It had the course I wanted to do and I wanted to transfer from my existing University of Waterloo. University of Waterloo is very hard. null
- I really liked the exposure I got being a student in one of the most esteemed and diverse university in Canada. I learned a lot about different cultures, nationalities, and society in general. Academically stimulating discussions and work opportunities kept us on our toes. I improved my communication skills and learned a lot about my subject of choice. Leaning to live alone and be comfortable with yourself is the key to mental peace. Giving time to our mental health and exercise was preached by every uni counselor and senior. null
Dislikes:
- I hated that the academic stress got too much and we let it interfere with our peace. I also hated the extreme competitiveness of the all the international students. I disliked the gap in communication and underlying discrimination caused by our Indian accents. Even other Indian students are rude to you, if you are not up to date with the slang, or the local culture. We have to put in a lot of effort to fit in, which causes a lot of stress. null
Campus Life
Campus life at the University of Waterloo is very depressing and tough. The clubs and student council events try their best to make students feel at home and involve them in activities, but overall academic pressure is too much. On the other hand, York University has a very diverse array of activities, and the Academic Pressure is not too much. York also provides a good balance between events on Campus as well as having fun in the City.
Hostel
All first-year students are recommended to stay in the in-campus University Residence. The in-camp residents are amazing at the University of Waterloo. Very comfortable living spaces, with adequate facilities for sports, gym, and study areas. The food is very good, with a lot of different options for all types of dietary preferences. When I was at York University, I lived in an apartment with 3 other people. The rent was $1000 CAD.
Campus Life
Campus life is pretty happening. We have clubs like marketing association clubs, supply chain and operations management club, case analysis club and more. We have Scott Library. There we get cheap print outs. We have TAIT Mackenzie center for sports and recreational activities.
Hostel
I am living in a bachelor apartment on campus. I pay 1,100 CAD as rent.
Campus Life
Our university is so happening we organize many events under different clubs and organizations. We have game rooms , a library, a gym and many more.
Hostel
During my university, I used to live with my friends in a 2 bhk apartment with rent of 2400 per month without utilities
Likes:
- It was very close to me and not much of a commute. The program itself was very easy and offered a lot of scopes. null
Campus Life
The university offers a lot of clubs and they help with CV. Along with events and EC.
Hostel
I didn’t need to apply.
Likes:
- MBA was a stepping stone to my career to pivot into strategy sector and Schulich has been a school famous for strategy consulting sector .
- The brand name associated with the school is something i love about. The school has some amazing courses taught by industry leaders from different countries. These professors have over 15-20 years of industry wide experience before they set their foot in teaching .
Dislikes:
- The school is academically rigorous which sometimes is good however might be a burden for students applying for Fulltime/ Part time jobs. The University is a little away from downtown region of Toronto where most of the companies are located .
Campus Life
York provides dearth of resources to students starting from books, newspapers access and what not. Campus has its own housing along with wifi and utilities which comes under fees
Hostel
The average rental expenditure for university housing is around 800-1400 CAD which includes wifi utilities etc. These ranges consist of single as well as sharing options.
Likes:
- Its reputed business school in Canada. Also, the location in Toronto which is financial city of Canada. null
- Curriculum and team work in assignments was good part of the master program. Built good relations while doing team work in projects. This program also holds monthly industry sessions, which help students to gain knowledge about various fields in finance. null
Dislikes:
- Not much diversity as lot of students are Chinese in class. Its hard to socialize with them. Also, university doesn't help you to get placed in company after completion of course. For international students, it's really competitive to get the job after Masters. null
Campus Life
Since masters finance is 1 year program, there are not much extracurricular activities. However, student can participate in MBA games, or join fitness centre etc. in the campus.
Hostel
York university has student apartments which they can book in advance.
Campus Life
There was a good campus and extracurricular experience. The activities are ample, they just need to market it better to generate more awareness.
Hostel
There are several student dorms you may decide to reside in as well as off campus housing which is decent.
