I chose this university bcz of following factors: Canada - Safe and developed country Concordia- Few options for Industrial Engineering in Canada and among all those options this is the best one considering the city, fees, and opportunities. Overall, I had a great experience.
I chose Canada mainly due to its lenient Immigration policy and I specifically chose Montreal due to its diversity and rich culture. Concordia is one of the best Universities in Montreal overall. The Campus is rich in infrastructure and is very accessible as it is located in Downtown. You have a lot of opportunities but only if you are looking for them. The city is moderate in its cost of living and Part-Time Employment opportunities.
I would describe my overall experience as satisfying. Its not the best university out there, but with the right amount of effort you can place yourself in the same pool like the graduates of major universities. Definitely one of the better universities in Canada.
I received a good scholarship and offer from my current professor. Generally, I'm satisfied with my master's program and I also I am happy with the current research project that I'm working on.
Accommodation facility is good in Montreal. Rents are bit high in Downtown Montréal if compared to living far away. But, It would be okay if your share the apartments with 2-3 people. Monthly rent is around $1500 CAD for 3 1/2 apartments in Downtown Montréal and this is for unfurnished apartments.
Student accommodation can cost upto 1000 CAD per month but if you share and find apt. nearby the whole expense can come upto 1500 CAD .
I live by myself in a studio apartment just steps away from the university. I pay $1000 including everything (Heat, hot water, electricity, WiFi). My apartment is small but sufficient for a single person, and I have every appliance including a dishwasher and a washer dryer in my unit. The apartment came furnished, and there are street parking options available.
University provides its accommodation but that is a bit expensive. Students generally live off campus.
Onsite rooms, I guess were only available for undergrad. So I never opted for any on-campus housing. But near the university the housing was cheap and affordable with all options being available. Landlords were adjusting as they opened their homes to internal students
