- The math faculty offers many fantastic events and activities to help its students destress and socialize. The faculty members and staff are also the best I’ve ever seen.
- Dislikes:
- Students can be more academically competitive, which is not great for mental health at times. If you are prone to stress and criticism, another university might be a better option.
I chose this university because of rigorous academic abilities, similar culture, friends attending, good co-op program. Overall, I’m really glad I chose to attend the University of Waterloo. The academic culture pushes you to succeed, and many people are very supportive and helpful. It’s a nice city that doesn’t have too many distractions.

I wanted to do an MBA but needed more experience. This University offered a similar course in Engineering. With its high industry connections, it provided quality co-op programs that enabled me to secure a job. The overall experience is good. Connections are the major advantage of University of Waterloo. It has its very own reputation across the world. The fees, however, is insane.

I chose this university because of one of the main factor which is their coop program (one term study, next term internship, and so on). This gives me a lot of practical work experience. My overall experience at the University of Waterloo has been great. The students are mostly smart and helpful and make for good study partners. There is a lot of help available for those who require it, and the campus culture is good.

- University of Waterloo is known for its Computer Science faculty being the best in North America, studying here for the past 2 years, I would definitely agree to this statement. Professors are extremely knowledgeable, they have deep understanding of the concepts and the assignment test your skills effectively.,
- I would say, you would never be memorizing concepts instead learning the intuition behind it, so it stays with you forever.,
- UWaterloo also has many extracurricular activities spanning sports, dance, music and recreational activities, so I recall from my time at UW, I have attended sporting events, salsa-bachata, bhangra, Kpop dance sessions, in addition to doing stress busting activities like pot painting and Christmas card making. So, it's not just all study but UW community gives you a platform for going beyond books as well.,
- Our campus has 2 main libraries, both spacious and best places for preparing for exams.,
- Life at UW will be memorable if you know how to balance fun and studies together.,
- The town of Waterloo is a student friendly place, affordable food options, and parks nearby, mostly, everything is at a walking distance from campus, if not then, our bus ride is also free in Waterloo.
- Dislikes:
- Study terms can be sometimes be stressful, especially, when preparing for mid-terms and finals, as the exam week might not have many study leaves, but if the student prepares well ahead in time, I think this can be overcome.
I chose University of Waterloo for its Computer Science faculty, being the best in North America. I also received offer from my desired program (Masters with thesis), as I wanted to delve deeper into research. University of Waterloo is also reputable in the industry as it produces bright technological savvy minds, and I aspired to be one. Life at UW will be memorable if you know how to balance fun and studies together. The town of Waterloo is a student friendly place, affordable food options, and parks nearby, mostly, everything is at a walking distance from campus, if not our bus ride is also free in Waterloo.

- Academics and overall environment is great.,
- Finding a job here depends on one's own merit and is not very dependent on school.,
- The coop programs are really good in terms of the experience they offer.
- Dislikes:
- Getting a coop / full time job is not that easy, the university helps with the co op program through the waterlooworks portal but not that much for full time jobs,
- Waterloo being far from Toronto has a slight location disadvantage.
I chose this university as the coop program was a plus since it helps to gain relevant Canadian experience and helps in recovering some fees. Overall the experience is good, it's what you make of it. There is a lot to learn, experiences to have. This degree can change the way you think.

- University of Waterloo is the only exclusive university with a special faculty dedicated to mathematics in North America.,
- I also like their co-op program as we get a lot of exposure while finishing our bachelor's.
- Dislikes:
- I didn't like how fast paced the education is along with co-op, as students in the co-op program in general face a lot of issues with not getting a break during the entire length of their program.
I chose this university as it has a really competitive math program that offers me flexibility to study math, CS, and finance altogether. I have had a great time with the in-depth academics and excellent faculty here. The teaching pattern is also really thought provoking which makes me want to learn more. And the location of the university is also nice, which makes it a great experience overall.
