A well balanced university experience.
Tips: Well, obviously moving from your home country is tough, but other than that no additional challenges. Obviously there was a cultural shift, but if you're up for the challenge, it will be a walk in the park. Although you will miss home a little more every passing day, but you have to realize that nobody got up to the highest echelons in an easy manner. Other than that, honesty enjoy life, work hard, and enjoy the hardest.
Likes (Student Life): Well, a lot of things to do, all sorts of sports facilities, varsity teams, all types of different cuisines. Many places to visit in and around Guelph. The majority of the events organized are at the start of the year due to favourable temperatures, all sorts of concerts and gatherings, parties etc. Although sports tournaments run all around the year, with almost every sport you can think of. I'm in the badminton club and cricket club, also in the varsity teams for both of them, so it takes a lot of time off of my day but it's all part of the process.
Dislikes (Value for money): I am not getting paid for my hard work, instead it's the other way around. I believe all the skills I bring to the table are not properly utilised in the courses, but it makes sense because a university programme is tailored to fit the needs of a bunch of students.

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.
