What students say about Memorial University of Newfoundland


Likes

  • We even have awesome subjects that are booming right now, such as machine learning, data science, and much more.
  • The process is quite easy, and the staff is really great at helping you work your hours around your class schedule.
  • With the job I have now on my internship, I can expect two more work terms in this same spot, as well as being offered a job upon graduation.
  • I received the prestigious Science Undergraduate Research Award (SURA), worth $9000, which is offered to a total of five students by the Dean of Science for conducting research in the Department of Computer Science.
  • The university has a good library and a good amount of greenery to relax, and it also has an amphitheater.
  • I have found a place outside, and the people are the best of the best.
  • The faculty of my college is the best in Atlantic Canada and one of the best in entire Canada, I believe.
  • The warm and welcoming atmosphere, coupled with the breathtaking views of St. Johns and the Atlantic Ocean, create the perfect setting for my university journey.

Dislike

  • There were some courses that were not relevant to the subject and were still there as compulsory.
  • University-provided accommodation has various options with shared and non-shared rooms, but they are a bit expensive

  • Dislikes:
  • Weather in this province is one of the worst in Canada. Very Windy,
  • Fee hikes. It used to be very affordable. Not anymore,
  • The campus buildings could be better. Needs renovation

English language proficiency test results, 12th marksheet is required. Done go for consultants. Do your own research of what programs you want. If you ndont have your 12th marksheet ready, apply with your 11th marksheet and they may give you a provisional acceptance. Present 12th marksheet to get the final acceptance letter. Their acceptance process is quite slow.

My experience at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN) has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I stepped onto the campus, I knew I had made the right choice. The warm and welcoming atmosphere, coupled with the breathtaking views of St. John's and the Atlantic Ocean, created the perfect setting for my university journey. One of the highlights of my time at MUN has been the academic quality and the supportive faculty. The professors are not only experts in their fields but also genuinely invested in their students' success. The smaller class sizes allowed for more personalized attention and meaningful interactions with professors, which enriched my learning experience. Beyond academics, the campus life at MUN was vibrant and engaging. There was never a shortage of student organizations and clubs to get involved with. I joined a few clubs related to my interests, which helped me make new friends and find a sense of community within the university. As an international student, I appreciated the diversity at MUN. Interacting with people from various backgrounds and cultures broadened my perspectives and enriched my overall experience. The university's commitment to inclusivity and creating a welcoming environment for all students was evident throughout my time there. The location of MUN in St. John's was also a huge plus. Exploring the city's unique culture, trying out local cuisine, and enjoying outdoor activities in the surrounding natural beauty became an integral part of my life. The city offered a perfect balance between academics and leisure, making my university years unforgettable. The support services at MUN were also commendable. The academic advisors and career counselors were always available to guide and assist students in achieving their goals. Whenever I faced challenges, there was a safety net of resources to help me navigate through them successfully. Additionally, being part of research projects during my upper years was a fantastic opportunity to delve deeper into my field of study and gain valuable experience that has benefited me after graduation. As I look back on my time at MUN, I am grateful for the memories, the friends I've made, the knowledge I've gained, and the personal growth I've experienced. Memorial University of Newfoundland has provided me with an exceptional education and a supportive community, setting me on a path for a successful future.

  • Dislikes:
  • The number of courses that are offered in a semester for students to choose from is limited. Sometimes we might end up choosing a course just because we have to finish the credits. The location of the university is in Newfoundland which has extreme weather sometimes, especially in winter and the wind makes it very hard here.,
  • Summer is like really less here. And also the province has fewer opportunities for computer science and IT. but these are all with respect to the location of the university.

So far it has been excellent. So many opportunities right from working as TA to being vide president in IYA to COOP , there has been wide areas to explore and learn and has definitely expanded my skillset as a software engineer.

  • Dislikes:
  • Although being a renowned institute producing multiple branch engineers this university is in remote location. Because of being in remote location it limit the industrial exposure and sometime this hurdles the incoming companies.

Studying and completing your graduation in university is one of the never miss experience. Accumulation of study academic and involvement of extra activities makes it worth a try.

  • Dislikes:
  • The release of grades in a timely manner and some unresponsive professors. Had to send multiple emails and visits to get my grades which were finally released after almost two semesters. The wait times were very exhausting

Overall the experience was good! Had a great time except for the weather which is horrible.

  • Dislikes:
  • Nothing much. I was the first batch of my course. They have done a beautiful job in segregating the kind of courses. They could do a little better and assess which subjects are more needed and should come in the must learn category since not all the students will be from a corresponding background to understand the subject.

I had a great time learning about the culture and the standards at which a masters course is being taught. Learned a lot.

I wanted to move away from home (Nova Scotia) and Memorial was the cheapest option of tuition while still being able to get out of the province. I applied to 3-4 colleges, all of them being local besides Memorial. My graduation score from high school was 85% and I did get into all schools I applied to.
