- 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.

Fees:
Tuition Fee: 48669
Course Curriculum:
Very comprehensive course with a wide variety if electives available. Coop option given for industrial exposure.
Fees:
CAD 50000
Fees:
$19,000+ per semester and other expenses. Very minimal scholarships are available in Canada for international students. Some of them include Entrance Scholarship etc. of about 500-2000$. Better to be financially prepared. CO-OP earning and part-time jobs are essential to meet expenses especially for international students.
I applied to 5 universities in Canada, 4 in Ontario and 1 in Alberta. I pinned down to Waterloo from (Trent, Ottawa, Queens) due to its wonderful co-op system and reviews by others. There was an application fee through the OUAC for every university. The process is simple, but I still went through an agent to help me better.
Course Curriculum:
Extensive and informative. Classes involving programming are very helpful when applying to jobs since they teach in-demand skills. As a first year, most courses are very general sign general physics, math and so on.
Fees:
You pay by semester. Engineering is the most expensive, and coop fees add to that. There are 3 semesters per year, every 4 months. But you alternate between school and co-op every term depending on your stream. The fee for the 1st term was around $17000.
Course Curriculum:
I think that the course curriculum is going well so far. However, I dropped out of the co-op program as the jobs were uninteresting and mostly irrelevant to my degree. All in all, there are lots of courses to choose from, so I like the variety that they offer.
Fees:
The fees included your tuition, along with some charges where you're able to get a refund. There was the option to opt out or keep the student health and dental care plan. Other charges included fees where you are not able to receive a refund which went towards the student fee of buildings.
