It is a great place for academics and career building.
Tips: There was a cultural shift, and I had to learn a lot of new things in terms of studying and work ethic. The University of Guelph offers a lot of scholarships and financial aid, and it also offers on-campus work to help students financially. It even offers opportunities for career advancement and helps students pursue their dreams. Public transportation is quite good, affordable and convenient. Buses run throughout the week, including weekends and late nights. As a student, you either get a free bus pass or have to pay a small fee to get the card, which costs less than the regular fare.
Dislikes (Indian Food): I prefer cooking myself because you can get a lot of food items from the food bank for free, which helps me save money as a student. I occasionally ate outside, but I stick to affordable and budget-friendly options. You can get tiffin services for 10-20 dollars, depending on where you're located.
