Graduate Certificate in Regulatory Affairs - Batch of 2022

I felt very welcomed and it was easy to manage studies and part time work.

Tips: I felt very happy at Conestoga College because the cultural diversity helped me grow. The campus is beautiful and lively and the professors are lovely. I didn't get any scholarships but I would recommend this college. There are many companies that offer sponsor visas, and the salary package is approximately 85,508 dollars per year. The job is easily offered, and it's not that hectic to work in this field. I'm excited to join this field and gain experience. I am quite satisfied with my experiences.

Likes (Student Life): We had classes and labs, but also a lot of free time to enjoy the college experience. There were many events, such as parties and programs, that allowed students from different backgrounds to mix and feel less homesick. There were also many clubs to join, such as art class, dance, gym, race, and Zumba.

Things are a bit hard to manage. Part-time is hard to get.

Tips: The transition coming to Conestoga college back in 2017 wasn't difficult. I did experience homesickness but I had good housemates. The college has got good facilities. International students are still coming to the college and Conestoga College is well known now compared to before, when I came very few students knew about Conestoga college. Please note that finding part time jobs in Kitchener and Cambridge was relatively easier in 2017 ( when I worked part time) than now. Current students can better comment on that. Just be aware that, if one doesn't have any relatives here in Canada, then one may find it a bit difficult in the beginning as we are starting from scratch but it gets easier with time. The only thing which was a bit frustrating was the fact that my programme had optional co-op, so only top 10 students based on merit were eligible for co-op. Getting co-op work experience makes it far easier to land a field job once you graduate. So, I think if everyone scoring 75% more was eligible for co-op then it would have been a nice thing to have Canadian co-op work experience on resume when they graduate.

Likes (Indian Food): One can find most or nearly all of the Indian food stores here. Eating outside is expensive but one can eat outside once in a while. Other than that, students normally buy coffee and other beverages from Tim Hortons on a daily basis. Groceries are a bit more expensive now than in 2017.

Dislikes (Part time work): Obtaining part time work is difficult nowadays and you have got to do low paying jobs. For many students, it seems because we didn't do any hard work in our home country. But this work will prepare you for better future. Off campus and on campus work opportunities are limited considering the number of international students coming to this city every year. So, hard work and luck are what you will need to find a part-time job, it's easier to find job for someone while it's difficult for others.

Offered by Conestoga College

Best and trustworthy university for Indian students.

Tips: If you like to come here then check out the programs and hands on experiences offered at Conestoga. Transitioning here felt like stepping into a new adventure, adjusting to different foods and expressions. Personally I am thrilled with my Conestoga experience interesting classes, and amazing friends. Satisfaction levels are high with the college.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): Canada's PR score is high for me because thanks to accessible pathways to citizenshipn a thriving job market top notch quality of life and a friendl, diverse society. My business analytics skills could potentially land me a fulfilling career home for stability, opportunities and stunning scenery.

Dislikes (Part time work): Part time work at conestoga offers a mixed bag. On campus jobs are plentiful like libraries, cafes and labs. But off campus options require more searching. Balancing work with study demands is flexible. Pay varies based on job type but expect minimum wage or slightly above.

Opportunities are there, depends on you how you want to utilize.

Tips: Overall it's good. If you really want to study you have opportunities, if you're taking a course just for the sake of visa - coConestogas is way easier compared to other colleges. Still faculty and course structure vary by course to course mine was easy, 60% of assignments and 55% were passing so you can imagine!

Likes (Safety): It is good, you won't ever feel like something is missing in the safety part. Security is available 24 by 7 and everything is just as it needs to be. Other than that CSR provides great support to students especially international students. I like the overall experience.

Dislikes (Internships): College doesn't provide any internship opportunities. You can look for something on your own. Even part time jobs are hard to find (not impossible) in Kitchener due to large number of international students. But everyone finds a job be it part-time or full time eventually.
