- 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
Placement
School of Continuing Studies does not provide any placement or research opportunities.
I chose to come to Canada primarily because of the fact that my family was moving here. I chose to study at York University due to its Goodwill and name in the market. My overall experience was a little below my expectations as the course did not really add to my current knowledge base.
Likes:
- 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
Placement
Since I am in the 4 months of my studies, nothing has happened yet. No company has visited.
I have been dreaming of studying in Canada since class 10 in 2017. But Covid happened so I couldn't leave. When I was in college in India I really loved the subject of Human Resources Management and I decided to study it in canada as well and then decided York University for the same. York University has amazing rankings for faculty and teaching norms. Also, I wanted to go to a University and see how it feels to study in a university. Also, HRM is considered one of the best courses offered by York. I have made friends here and I am currently loving my student life at York, but it definitely gets boring because there are no extracurricular activities for us.
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
Placement
There is no post study placement provided by university but there is centers that can help you with your cv building and guide you how to apply and write cover letters
Internship
No
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
Placement
At the University of Waterloo, there are tons of Research opportunities and excellent placement opportunities for only STEM students; other faculties don't have it as easy or as good as engineers. Placements are not a thing in Canadian Universities if you are not a top 1% student.
Internship
I was in the Co-op program at the University of Waterloo, but when I transferred to York, I was in a regular program. In my first year in 2018, I interned in Grameen Foundation India, luckily that was situated in my hometown of Gurugram, Haryana so it was a great experience at home. The salary was paid in INR but was equivalent to what I would've got in Canada. I got paid 1,20,000 per month.
Placement
CIBC, RBC, TD, Scotia Bank all of these companies visited. They offered various profiles like marketing coordinator, sales, investment Banking, consulting roles. Median salary is 60,000
Internship
No, I have not opted for any internship or coop here. Because we didn't have any option to do so.
Placement
The post-study placement rates are high from your. In any industry, you can find at least 100 alumni from York University.
Internship
No, I didn’t opt for that.
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
Placement
There are a lot of opportunities for people in my program upon graduating as the program also has internships so you can get experience.
Internship
I haven’t but i do plan for my third or fourth year.
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 .
Placement
The placements are pretty smooth because of the brand name. The average salary is around 85000 CAD. There are different companies visiting the campus depending upon the industry such as Bell, Rogers, Deloitte, EY, RBC, Scotiabank, TD bank etc. School has a portal where companies listings come.
Internship
I interned at Deloitte Consulting. The company comes to campus for hiring which had an application process
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
Placement
Students have to find job through making connects. University don't help for that. Median Salary $70,000.
Overall, it was an interesting experience due to new culture, new friends. On the academic front, I learned a-lot through case studies, projects, group assignments. I feel program length should be more than 12 months as it becomes very hectic for international students to manage all the workload.
Placement
Opportunities were quite scarce during graduation and there wasn't much of a support structure right after graduation.
Overall it was a great experience, I learned a lot about my self. The level of teaching and academics was good and it is not very intimidating.
