Trent University, Peterborough Reviews and Ratings

• I found my accommodation through Facebook marketplace.
• I preferred to live off campus expecting monthly rent to be $600-$700 with all utilities.

• Accomodation is a little hard to find. Costs around 500-500CAD 

It had the course I wanted to do, and the fees were reasonable too compared to the other universities in Toronto. I got in through the IDP agency, and they helped us file the visas and admission process. It didn't take long to get the offer letter after applying

If I could go back in time to when I was applying to schools, I would still choose to apply to UChicago again. They gave me an incredible opportunity with great financial support to pursue what I wanted, and the connections I made after university were invaluable-- it is part of the reason I'm working where I am today. However, I would still be cautious and not underestimate the rigor of the coursework. The classes are challenging and their expectations of when you should complete assignments and the volume of text you have to read and essays you have to write can quickly become unmanageable if you let them slip, especially while maintaining your extracurriculars. The atmosphere of the school, while generally supportive, can still make you feel like you have to compare yourself to your incredibly bright classmates, which increases the pressure of your studies. I enjoyed the experiences I had but I would be lying if I didn't say my work ethic took a dive towards burnout before graduation. High expectations coupled with a slightly competitive class group and various extracurricular responsibilities make it feel impossible to stay afloat.

My experience at Trent University was enriching and fulfilling. The campus offered a vibrant academic atmosphere, and the faculty was supportive and knowledgeable. Engaging in various extracurricular activities and research opportunities was rewarding. The emphasis on holistic development and a tight-knit community made my time there truly memorable.

I found the university offering the course and subjects that I was interested in. Another brownie point went to its beautiful campus and very helpful and kind staff.

Scholarship money, cheaper than other universities, accepting the culture and interesting courses, has good varsity teams and a nice gym. Organized faculty and helpful academic advisor for international students and also job hunting and co-ops. It's ranked the most beautiful campus in the entire province and is on the banks of a river.

Reputation and affordability of the program compared to other MBA programs in the country. The faculty is great also the co-op component of the program helps students who want to get work experience before graduation.

When I was deciding on my University choice I took a lot of factors into perspective. I have always been one to like small towns and drama-less places and Peterborough ON offered me both. Trent University is known for its beautiful environment and scenery and was very important in my decision.

The main reason I chose Trent is that they offered me a scholarship for free tuition. At the time I applied for post-secondary schools I believed I wanted to be far away from home. When it came time to choose though, this ended up being the closest school I had applied to and that was one of the reasons I chose it.
