Amazing student life and friendly people.

Tips: Students should know that the admissions process is straightforward and that all the necessary information is available on the college website. Choose the course wisely, and reach out to the college helpline in case of help. Although most of the courses are diplomas, there are a few scholarship options that are listed on the website. The cultural drift is the limelight. Overall, I feel satisfied and confident.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): If you have a good profile before you immigrate, Humber can help you get a decent job, leading to permanent immigration. Given the quality of life in Canada, I would prefer to stay there. Don't leave right after your undergraduate or school studies. If you're planning to go to Canada, make sure you complete your profile-building activities.

Dislikes (Value for money): It's a great school if you want an old-school vibe with a campus on the lakeshore. However, the fees are comparatively higher than other institutions. Also, considering the latest government regulations and current job scenarios, I would rather prefer to get a master's degree or a course without Co-op requirements.

Placements are not provided at all in Humber College.

Tips: I returned to India after completing my three-year course in Canada. I applied for scholarships but was rejected because they were reserved for Indigenous Canadians. I got minimum-wage jobs despite having interned at a government body in Canada. The college didn't help with placement at all. The job market is unkind to Indians who want to hold a respectable post. The only jobs open to immigrants are blue-collar jobs. Even for on-campus opportunities, only citizens are considered. Paying off my own fees was almost impossible with the meagre salary I earned. I leave it to decision-makers to decide what's best for them, but I wouldn't recommend moving abroad without full financial support and mental health considerations.

Likes (Safety): I felt safe while I was in the city, which has a reputation for proper implementation of women's safety measures. However, there are a few localities where racism is still prevalent. Also, there is a lot of community discrimination internally within Indian immigrants. So, safety can be a concern sometimes.

Dislikes (Post study jobs): My experience was bad as the companies that sponsor visas often offer low-paying, bond-based, or contractual jobs that are not relevant to the field of study. The jobs offered are typically blue-collar and have no relation to the skills of the person being offered the job.

Difficult to find accommodation in Lakeshore.

Tips: The accommodation situation near Lakeshore campus is extremely bad. Make sure that you have contacts already who are willing to help you with the transition. The college will give you many assignments from the first week itself that it will be difficult to focus on any other thing after the beginning of classes. So, the best thing is to apply for part-time jobs and find a place to live before your classes begin. Arrive at least 10 days before the college starts so that you are comfortable and don't have to rush during the college hours.

Likes (Indian Food): You find quite a decent number of options for Indian food but it will burn a hole in your pocket and it is not suggested. But there shall be a difference in taste as compared to the food available in the country and it is suggested that you try everything to not get homesick.

Dislikes (Student Life): The college has little options whereby an international student can approach for help. Moreover, finding decent accommodation in the vicinity of college is a huge task and the rents asked by the landlords are through the roof. The assignments and part time opportunities are very cut throat too.

Humber College is a great experience!

Tips: Things to know before joining Humber College, North Campus is that Canada is very cold and you will need to bring a lot of winter clothes before joining this college. Most of the food options at the campus are non-vegetarian. If you're a vegetarian, make arrangements accordingly. If you're non-vegetarian, you're up for a feast. All the best for the rest.

Likes (Student Life): Student life at Humber College, North Campus is full of a mixed crowd. Most of the students studying at Humber College come from diverse backgrounds and countries. For an Indian student, you're not going to feel lonely at all, as the college will have enough people to offer comfort and support to you.

Dislikes (Internships): Despite being a 4/5 on internships, the college promotes and motivates its students to seek internships on their own. However, the course curriculum and teaching pedagogy train its students to be industry-ready at the end of the programme. There are multiple opportunities for internships outside the college.

Vibrant and diverse learning environment.

Tips: On my first day, I was provided with a campus tour by the staff. It was a great way to learn about each and every corner of the college, like the lecture halls, canteen, assignment lab, etc. This really made me feel happy and very grateful to the staff who are so supportive and accommodating. As we know, there are a lot of companies that guarantee to hire freshers upon completing a course with new technologies. At this moment, many companies are looking for people with artificial intelligence knowledge. This is the age of technology, so it is beneficial for students to enroll and gain some knowledge and experience in this field.

Dislikes (Part time work): These days, it is difficult to find a job. Whenever I search for a job, all the positions are full. I know from talking with other students that the average part-time job pays around $12 to $15 per hour. We can find help on some online platforms.
