• When I was a student, i used to live near the university, not in campus housing, as it was tough to get into. I and a friend rented an apartment for the first 8 months, and then for the next year, 4 friends rented a whole house with 2 bedrooms, 1 hall, and 1 kitchen. We found both the accommodation through facebook marketplace.
• First apartment rent was 600 CAD per month; second house per head rent was 550 CAD per month excluding the utilities. After including the utilities, it can be 700-750 CAD for both the accommodations
• Winter was the major challenge in finding the apartment, Canada's winter being harsh and we had to visit before confirming the rental place; it was tough to travel in such harsh winter.
• Try your luck in campus housing; if not, stay near the university for the university vibe, though rent would be higher but would be helpful in winters.
• Both the accommodations were a 10-min bus ride to the university or a 20-min walk to the university. Most Indian students stay near the university.

• I found accommodation via a friend of mine. There are so many agencies in the city that help with finding accommodation, but usually expensive.
• My rent was $450 on sharing basis when i came in, but changed to $720 when i switched to a different place. Lots of facebook and whatsapp groups. Be cautious when using portals like kijiji or giving out money to some agency,

University of Waterloo is ranked #192 in Best Global Universities. Schools are ranked according to their performance across a set of widely accepted indicators of excellence. This is the best university for me . So that I choose this institute.

It has been quite good till now. I am still new here and learning the things around here. The university's infrastructure is what leaves me in awe.

It's been enjoyable and stressful at the same time. I need time to enjoy it fully as I have just arrived here.

It was a wonderful experience with extensive learning on technical and managerial skills. The courses are designed considering their application in current industrial setup which makes it very easy to adopt to corporate work environment for a fresh graduate. The other students are also competitive and there is a lot to learn from your peers as well.

The admission process included filling out a Supplementary Information Form(SIF). This form had questions related to work experience and educational background related to this course. Other than that, an IELTS score was required. There was no requirement for a GRE score. We also submitted 2 LORs(one professional and one academic) and an SOP. I prepared all the documents on my own. It took around 2-3 hours to fill out the admission form online.

The Best Engineering University in Canada, the best co-op program, very well respiration and education system.

Waterloo has a huge name in Software Engineering and AI. I wanted to work in an interdisciplinary field of SE and AI, so this place was the best fit for me. Furthermore, there is opportunities for good scholarships, lots of funds & grants, amazing professors in the field of SE, well structured programs, and top SE companies hire a lot of people from UWaterloo.

I chose this university because of its world-renowned engineering faculty and diversity. There are many specialization options in my program which will help me to focus on a particular field of study, i.e. AI/ML. Also, due to an enormous alumni network, there are many networking opportunities that can help in landing a job or an internship at good companies.
