Selkirk College is a good going college with some quality education.
Tips: You need to mentally prepare yourself to live in a small town with no fancy buildings or anything like party culture. It's just a small place in all a retirement community. Selkirk College is not a great college but good enough for a middle class person to have a dream of studying quality education in Canada and hoping to achieve something big in their life within the next 3 to 4 years of their stay on a work permit in Canada.
Likes (Public transportation): The transportation in Castlegar is very flexible and you have multiple buses running all day to make a smooth daily commute. Here you won't find local people using the bus service much, as everyone owns a car and usually prefers to travel by car. It's easy for students to avail the bus service and mostly they won't be too filled with people, which makes it more flexible for travel.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): With the changing rules and situation in the country and the government imposing study visa restrictions, it's hard to find jobs for Indian nationals. You need to have as many certifications as you can relevant to the job you are trying to find in order to get your resume considered for an interview.

Fun loving and an easy going college.
Tips: You will like the college as there isn't much you need to know except the transport issue. Part time jobs are available in Castlegar, Trail and Nelson. Secondly, there isn't entertainment here, apart from a theatre in Castlegar. But in Nelson fun and entertainment is there.
Likes (Value for money): It's affordable and the faculty is very good with good classrooms and all. Class hours will be 2 hours, and in between, you will get 5-10 mins of break as well. In the whole day, you will have 1-2 or 2-3 classes, that's it. There is a sports area where you can spend your time.
Dislikes (Public transportation): There is very limited bus facility from Mon-Fri. It starts at 6.30 AM and the final bus leaves at 6.30 PM. However, duration between buses is minimum 1-2 hours, so if you miss a bus then you need to wait for an hour.
Secondly, there is only one taxi in the whole Castlegar, and you need to call them and inform to come to your place. You need to have a bicycle or a car for transportation.
