Well it was very pleasant and very pretty area. Very clean. A lot of good stores in the area. There's my first time being in this area. I was there today volunteering with the kidney foundation raising money for the kidney foundation plus the kidney March. It was very fun. We were in a little grass area with benches. It's it was a beautiful day. It was right across from the children's hospital, the new one. I don't know what much to say about this place but it's beautiful area very nice. I've met a lot of nice friendly people today who live in the area and they're very happy with the area of being clean and very respectful people and everybody connects and that's good. That's a good neighbor area to have and a good community so it was nice and we raised a lot of money today for the kidney foundation and the kidney march or back there again tomorrow for the same thing
This review has nothing against the institution itself. But everything against the parking authority on campus. I paid for parking in an area that was clearly marked as public parking, and was given a ticket regardless- when I called to refute the ticket, I was told that area was meant for contractors and not students I am not a student.
I got my degree here, at UofC. There could be a lot to say but this is a simple review. It is a nice modern university with likely a lot of modern services and courses. They have been putting a lot of resources into new buildings and services to modernize the university. They have awesome sport complexes and good dormitories. Food options in Mac Hall are also great with a variety of cuisines available. They host concerts and other entertainment events in Mac Hall helping to promote university life. I enjoyed getting my degree here but I also did not go anywhere else.
Beautiful campus especially in summer, nice to walk around, active and busy place.
UofC is a rich intellectual space for social, entrepreneurial, scientific research and development.
One of the best institution of learning in Canada. It's a place to consider when obtaining a new degree or stepping upper comes into you mind
Had a quite bad experience with the university. Be careful with the program fees calculator. They lure international student by showing a lower fee in the program fee calculator and once the offer is accepted you come to know that the fees is way above the amount shown by fee estimator. After that they just hide behind the legal clause that its just an estimator . In the end you loose your time, money and energy. So please take advice of some senior students studying in the university rather than the so called advisor whose only objective is to lure the international students
U of C- a great opportunity for others, but unfortunately my son didn’t think so. He dropped out after 4 years studying business… Praying that my daughter is doing better! Still gave 5* for its reputation though!
Zero communication, zero support, and zero care for students. Any “support” the school provided is just previous/current students being paid to kiss up to the school. They are useless for students if they always side with the school on issues. I only had 2 professors in my 4 years that actually cared about how the class was doing and how to make sure students were actually learning and not just cramming due to stress. This school is sneaky and likes to put students in difficult positions. In many cases you have to pay your way out of them…if not just drop out.
Great institution... Except for their ridiculous parking. Absolutely dispicable that the only student lots available are at MacMahon stadium the most inconvenient parking lot on" campus" and lot 10, which is one of the furthest ones from any relevant building. The kicker is it's $440 / semester. I would prefer paying more for one of the other 30 parking lots closer to the buildings than these god awful peripheral ones.
