Master of Business - Batch of 2024
4.6
Amazing university, vibrant campus and a fun student life.
Tips: When considering this university, students should be aware of the structure for studying here. Some students I know came here and forgot they came for the primary purpose of studying, and now concentrate on part-time work instead. Instead of focusing on part-time jobs, you should concentrate on your studies. In addition to that, students should also be outgoing and not just stay home, even if they have recordings of classes. This will help students maintain contact with their professors and their subject material. There are many restaurants here, with cuisine options from Arabian to Indian. Personally, I prefer to cook, as it's cheaper, but I can't be sure of the general pricing, as each restaurant will have different prices. I'd say it will roughly be 20 dollars per meal. There aren't many post-study jobs here. It's difficult for freshers, mostly for graduates. I don't have a list of job roles or salary packages, but I can say that the roles vary from person to person. Some people might get a graduate role, while others might get an experienced role.

University of Canterbury provides many on campus events for students.
Tips: It is hard to get a job in my field because there are not a lot of job opportunities available. Also, there are students from different countries, so there will be some culture shock. There are no scholarships available for my course. The people are kind and welcoming, especially if you respect their culture. The elderly are friendly and open to having warm conversations. Christchurch is a quiet and peaceful place, and the people enjoy that kind of life. I feel safe on and off campus, and most of the campus is open to students so they can study whenever they want. Overall, I am satisfied with the campus, the country, and the university.
Dislikes (Internships): Unfortunately, internships are not part of the curriculum here like they are in India. This makes it challenging to gain hands-on experience, especially since most employers require knowledge of New Zealand laws and standards. In India, internships are available at any firm, but here most internships are through agencies and students have to pay for them.

3.8
A challenging but fulfilling and rewarding experience.
Tips: It is very important to understand that moving to a new country can be very challenging and overwhelming. The way life works and the processes are different to what you are used to. I think it was really important for me to try and learn the way people live their lives here since you can't change their way of living, so you need to be open to adapting. However, you should never feel like you are alone. Especially if you are moving to Christchurch for University, there is a whole network of people that you can get in contact with, and there are many different clubs to join. Therefore, you mustn't be scared to go out and meet new people. Embrace the new challenges. For me, joining clubs and/or sports teams is the best way to meet new, like-minded people. Furthermore, in terms of scholarships and funding, I managed to get an international student scholarship that allowed me to live in the halls in my first year for free. There are many scholarships that you can apply for, however, you need to make sure that the scholarship applies to international students. In terms of funding, I was fortunate enough that my parents were able to give me a weekly allowance that enabled me to live my day-to-day life. However, since I am studying engineering and playing cricket, I was also able to find jobs that allowed me to make money over the summertime. As long as you work within your visa restrictions, there is a lot of opportunity to find jobs etc. The university experience has been really amazing and I have been able to learn really cool things, both within the university and through daily life. While my course is very challenging, I have learnt some amazing things and could not be more grateful to be learning high-quality, practical knowledge that can be applied in the real world. New Zealand in general is a beautiful place with amazing people and beautiful views, you cannot say too much bad about this country.
Likes (Safety): Christchurch and New Zealand in general is a very safe city and country. The people are very nice and helpful. Although there are crimes like stealing from cars, as I have experienced, it is very easy to navigate through life and I have rarely had trouble trying to fit in within the community. Especially when joining the university, I felt that everyone was extremely supportive and always looking to make new friends. Therefore, the overall UC community is amazing.
Dislikes (Value for money): New Zealand in general is an expensive place to live. And, with international student feels, it makes it extremely expensive. While I have been fortunate enough that my parents can support me through my undergraduate study, a lot of students would not have the same luxury. It seems quite unjustifiable that as an international student, you pay more than 5x the price for the same courses and resources that a local student would get. I had already been in New Zealand for 2 years before joining the university and had a good network of friends already. Therefore, I did not need support as an international student as I am sure international students need.

Practically oriented in every perspective.
Tips: The enrollment process at the University of Canterbury was easy. For the initial days, it was obvious I felt cultural differences but after getting used to it, it felt like a home away from home. I was awarded a Dean's Award scholarship. I had a good academic score in my Bachelor and previous work experience helped in get the scholarship which was around 5000 NZD. I am fully satisfied with my university, course and the country - New Zealand.
Likes (Public transportation): The public transportation in Christchurch is excellent. It is well connected to the campus, and even towns 40-50 km from Christchurch are connected with good frequency of timings. The bus is the primary mode of transportation, and fares are subsidized for students at a rate of 1 NZD.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are some jobs on campus like Tutor, Research Assistant, and part-time in some cafes around the campus. Talking about Off-campus jobs there are plenty of them but you must have relevant work experience to easily get those. Academics are easily manageable with the job. Most of the jobs pay the minimum wage in New Zealand which is around 23 NZD.

Learning with fun, and interaction with different communities and people.
Tips: Don't think! Just come to the University of Canterbury. It's the best university. The university provides everything here. All the faculty are here to guide us from scratch. The university has different departments for students to help. The university is very active in terms of hosting events and helping students.
Likes (Indian Food): Hygiene is followed. Quality of food is delivered. Here maximum options are non-vegetarian, but I am a vegetarian. So, I don't eat much from the outside restaurants. I am an Indian and close to my accommodation. There is an Indian restaurant where I go to and enjoy my meal fortnightly. The price is not expensive because if one is earning then he/she can afford eating outside. I prefer to cook by myself and enjoy my meal.
Dislikes (Value for money): It's expensive as compared to other universities. But the fees is justified as we can see that the course offers 180 credits towards our degree, which is good. The professors are very supportive. They are always there to help and encourage us to do good. My overall experience has been the best here.

Great university and great exposure to learn and grow.
Tips: I was concerned about the transition from India to New Zealand, but it wasn't that tough. The university and students made me feel very welcome and helped me get into the system. I applied for a scholarship and secured it, which was very helpful. Students should firmly keep an eye on scholarships as they would be reflected in the mark sheet and would be helpful in future job placements.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I got permanent residency in New Zealand after completing my course and getting a job there. I love the culture and the country. It is peaceful and accepting. If you have the opportunity to settle in New Zealand, you should definitely try it.
Dislikes (Public transportation): I gave public transportation a low rating because bus service can be quite limited, especially late at night and on weekends. However, bus fares are very reasonable, and using a combination of public transportation and bicycles can make travel time faster.

Perfect blend of all the things that a student may need.
Tips: The college is very good overall. There is always a cultural shift when a student studies internationally, but after some time he/she settles. I got a scholarship of 5500$ and it was provided to me on merit basis by the university and it was called Dean's Award Scholarship. Overall, I am totally satisfied with the university and the country.
Likes (Student Life): One can take part in a lot of activities in the campus. In every week or two, there is some event happening. There is a separate committee for organizing events for students. Also, the campus is very beautiful and well planned. We can get everything that we may need.
Dislikes (Part time work): There are ample of jobs, but we require a relevant experience for them, which is difficult for an entry level international student. So as an international student, I am giving a rating of 3. If we got skills in the relevant background, then we can get jobs.

A pretty good university with very limited opportunities due to recession.
Tips: There is quite a bit of adjustment when comparing the education system from back in India. In India, as long as we get good marks at the end of the year exams, we get a good overall mark on our report cards. However, here you have to work hard and get good grades in each and every assignment because the amount of weight they carry in your final grades is a lot.
Likes (Safety): The city is pretty safe as I haven't heard much violence against anyone. There is little racism, if any at all, against other ethnicities. There is not any bad experience in particular that I have in the city that I could share. The people here are quite friendly as well which is also good. However, from what I have heard from friends, there is a bit of exploitation done when someone is sponsoring your residence visa if they are your workplace as well. However, the owners in those cases are also mostly Indians.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Not many companies offer sponsor visas as far as I know. The main reason for my rating of 2 is that the current job market is not very good. The country is in recession and there is an acute shortage of jobs available in a lot of the fields. Quite a lot of the students need to move to cities or even countries to find a good job. The wages/cost of living ratio is also not great for it to be considered a good option to work.

Modern college with helpful professors and green environment.
Tips: Studies are taken seriously but professors are supportive and helpful. Students get used to their studies after seeing the competition. The country is very beautiful and the infrastructure of the college is modern. Course fee is justified nothing more. Accommodation will cost around 8 lakhs/ year roughly which I don't think is much. Prefer this country over Canada and it is worth it.
Likes (Safety): The country is very safe and people are polite and respectful. The Maori tribesmen are also very welcoming and want others to know about their culture. So far I haven't experienced any bad experiences and I don't think any of my friends have either. 10/10 for safety.
Dislikes (Internships): GoinGlobal portals is famous in student communities for getting good internships. Sometimes there are recruitment drives across campus or in Christchurch some fares are organized especially for international students. Be aware, make connections, subscribe to newsletters and definitely a good internship opportunity is seeking you!

The cost of living is high in Toronto.
Tips: Their goals must be clearly aligned towards the course. Students should dedicated time to self study as the instructor teaches the overview only. The cost of living is high in Toronto but the part time jobs are hard to get. After graduation, it is really hard to get a job. I would rather recommend students to go for a Masters degree and get their studies done in a year and get a work permit and a domain job.
Likes (Safety): It's fine but North York in itself isn't safe. Especially the intersection of Jane and Finch near the university is the most unsafe place in Toronto. The university takes care of your safety. I don't think safety is really a problem. You should try not to live in North York as the housing isn't good. I would rather suggest finding a house a little far from the main campus. Scarborough, Markham and Richmond Hill are good options.
Dislikes (Value for money): I would rather spend on pursuing Masters and get more credit for the CPA rather than this course. The structure is not designed properly at all. The fee is way too high. Rather I would suggest you to go for Masters in Rock or Smith University or Concordia. If you are planning to do CPA please be prepared for the harsh reality of the Canadian job market. CPA is worth it but the process in itself is lengthy.

The faculty is supportive and we have flexible schedule.
Tips: York University is a renowned university in Toronto. Before coming, please be ready to accept the cultural change. In Canada, people are more polite and kind. They are open-minded, helpful, and nonjudgemental. I did not get any scholarships. There was an application fee to apply for the course. Studying as an international student makes you more independent, and decisive and provides opportunities towards your career.
Likes (Quality of faculty): Faculty members at my university are really helpful and good. There are different requirements for different subjects and it is based on the faculty, so some conduct exams and some don't they prefer practical assignments and all. They are more open-minded and allow students to prioritize their tasks.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): Nowadays, the job market in the healthcare sector is booming in Canada. Canada is referring to skilled workers such as welders, mechanics, and painters. They also prefer French-speaking candidates in some provinces like Montreal.

Easily approachable management and faculty. Studying in university has it's perks.
Tips: I didn't feel much of a cultural shift when I arrived at York University, perhaps because so many of the students are from India. I didn't receive a scholarship, and I don't know how to apply for one. But if you have a good academic record in your home country, you can contact the college by email and they will respond. I am generally satisfied with the university, but I am not happy with the course content. I expected a lot more than they delivered. The country is decent, but there is some racism. Immigrants from India have achieved a lot here, but a few of them are spoiling the culture by breaking certain laws.
Likes (Indian Food): I haven't eaten a lot outside, but I have been to a few Indian restaurants or cafes. The food options are great, and the taste is too. However, don't compare the prices with Indian currency, or you won't choose the dish because the prices are set according to Canadian standards, not Indian. I prefer eating homemade food.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus part-time jobs are quite limited and hard to get if you don't have any strong references or connections with someone already working. Off-campus opportunities also require good networking skills and strong references but off-campus is easier to apply for the role.

York University experience - Pros and cons.
Tips: If you're considering attending York University you should know that you'll get some great perks after you enroll including free LinkedIn and Microsoft subscriptions. To get the most out of your time at York try to network with other students and join events and seminars. You'll also want to interact with your professors as they can guide you in the right direction.
Likes (Safety): The campus is safe and secure and you can walk around at night without being bothered. The security system is good and there's an app that can help you in case of an emergency. The library is open until midnight so you can study safely there as well.
Dislikes (Internships): I'm finding it difficult to find an internship. The job market is down, and the college doesn't provide any guidance. If you're considering coming here, do your research first. You'll need to find your own connections and resources.

Tips: First of all it is great university for further studies. Prepare yourself before joining the college. Do research on college and its records. Also, look at expenses from start to end. Grab scholarships and get some help from admitted students so that you won't face problems there.
Likes (Safety): The student life at York University is great. First of all the diverse campus will make you comfortable. There are many cultural events which will not let you feel homesick. There are many cultural and literary clubs. Sports are the main attraction. Games are held every month. I have been experiencing a great student life.
Dislikes (Public transportation): The faculty of York university is so good. You will see diversity. Some Indian faculty will be teaching you. Our department's faculty is great.

It's an amazing college and it focuses on each student the way it is meant to be.
Tips: There was a bit cultural shift when I moved from India to Canada. Canada is known for its multi-cultural diversity and with this different cultures bring in a different form of living style and their own festivals. The good thing is we have all kinds of food available here.
Likes (Post study jobs): Many companies offer work visas. Accountant roles have been offered to students with a salary of $70,000 CAD. Most companies give you the position of supervisor or Project manager because both of the position comes under NOC-B jobs, so it'll be helpful for the student to get his Permanent Residence.
Dislikes (Safety): The parking space is small. We have safety workshops for women on self-defence. Counselling and support services. Escort services for physically disabled students and they have their own choice of schedule which helps them to cope with studies the way they want.

Cool campus life and good support service.
Tips: Its very important for students to research the colleges programs, faculty, facilities, and campus life. Understanding the admission requirements and available resources can help make an informed decision. I don't personally avail scholarships but through academic achievements, extracurricular activities, or specific criteria set by the college. Allowances vary widely based on the scholarship and the institution. I don't have personal feelings but student satisfaction can depend on factors like the quality of education which is good here, support services which are also very good they respond very fast, and campus life which is very cool here. Searching reviews and talking to current students can provide insights into satisfaction levels.
Likes (Public transportation): We can commute easily there. TTC is a good way to commute. There is subways as well as bus service near the campus. If we look at other cities like Brampton, the bus service there is not so good and it will take too much time to commute from there to York University.
Dislikes (Value for money): Too much fees for international students and if we look the fee structure of domestic students. It's approximately 3 times less. Like we only have to go to 2 or 3 days to the school for 3-hour classes each day and I think its too much fee for the same.

The York experience was satisfactory but in terms of academics, they could do better.
Tips: You can check credit transfers options which might save you a few dollars. You should also verify accommodation before paying the lease money. Try to utilise the facilities provided by your school, like library, etc. My cohort was not very diversified which is something I was disappointed from.
Likes (Safety): The university area is safe and secure. There is policing on subways as well. Downtown Toronto is generally a shady place, you do find homeless and intoxicated people around the subway station who do misbehave at times. I have also seen people getting robbed in front of me, so just carry pepper spray, be alert and smart.
Dislikes (Value for money): I feel that the tuition fees is expensive in terms of the quality of education provided. However, if you see the standard tuition rates of fellow colleges in Canada, Toronto, one wouldn't say that it's expensive. My classes were online for the first semester due to which I couldn't avail the facilities offered by the university.

Tips: There was some cultural shift when I came to a new country. I didn't get any scholarships for my course and the university doesn't offer any scholarships too. My university is good. The teachers and staff members give proper attention and are very serious in terms of academics.
Likes (Permanent Immigration): I would like to settle in this country for having a better future. However, if I got a better opportunity in my home country I would switch. If given a chance to settle here I would do it after getting a job opportunity as it will be preferable.
Dislikes (Internships): In my course, the coop is not much available but some are there. However, there are various sites where we can search for job opportunities like Indeed, Linkedln. But the problem is there is an immense number of competition in the market.

Great university to explore
Tips: The university is great and you have to explore on your own. There are many social events for international students which you can attend and get to know more people. And the campus is so huge that you can explore there are gyms, indoor sports, a cafeteria and much more.
Likes (Public transportation): It is very convenient to travel via bus as well as subway as it has a stop right on the campus. There is a subway station inside the campus and also several bus stops on the campus itself. Also there are on-campus university shuttles which can pick up and drop you off anywhere on the campus for free.
Dislikes (Internships): My course doesn't have any internship and co-op opportunities so that's why I don't have any opinion about it. If you come here for your bachelor's degree then you'll have many opportunities to work on campus and get experience.

This is a whole new experience here. You will have your lows but just trust the process.
Tips: This is a place that has people from all around the world. And you have to be mindful of their customs because sometimes people judge the way you think about other communities. Also, it's a good opportunity for anybody who gets an offer letter from this university. They should go for it to have an easy and balanced academic as well as professional life.
Likes (Quality of faculty): York university is one the best universities of Canada. I was told in India that university is difficult to deal with but in reality, it's the opposite. It has flexible hours and schedules. Not to forget about assignments that are not burden here.
Dislikes (Safety): Sometimes people hit and stab you and being an international student, you can't even keep spray pepper or any kind of weapon with you for your safety. That's kind of absurd. And, TTC I. e. Toronto transit is not safe anymore. Strange people also travel from TTC specially subways.

Smart effort changes your approach towards personal and professional life.
Tips: The student must know the study pattern difference and lifestyle differences. The students here not only study and prepare for exams but also work in part time areas for earning their livelihood, pay their college fees and learn skills of financial management which are not generally learnt at college level in Asian countries. Moreover, legal implications are very serious in Canada, the Canadian government really considers visa violations seriously so any wrongful act or indecent behaviour would directly amount to deportation and cancellation of visa. So the whole country gives you an amazing learning experience and matures your mind set for further hurdles you face while entering the job market.
Likes (Student Life): The student life is different from India, as the study pattern is more on conceptual clarity than learning the information. The university Keele campus is surrounded by various residential complexes with different types of residential spaces (York Appartments), coffee shops, food courts (York Lanes) having diversity in cuisines with that the campus provides outdoor and indoor co-curriculum activities and also wellness center (York Lions). The university itself provides not only strong community based support but also support related to ways of life in Canada and psychological consultations. So for education purpose, the University is best for experiencing graduate studies.
Dislikes (Internships): The university faculty has its career department which guides you with various internships opportunity available across a year. And the ways to prepare your application documents. The most important is the student needs to be proactive in understanding the methodology of application preparation and advocating about their areas of interest or past experience in certain parts of applications. Moreover, the application process has timelines so before your start, with course, you can communicate to seek information with the department or your instructor. So the Osgoode Hall Law School of York University is active in guiding you in your career considering you are willing to make efforts for the same.

In my opinion it is very nice college. If you want to study here in whatever field you want.
Tips: In york university, every student has to submit a transcript from their previous University. So whoever is coming to college please bring transcripts with you. And also students must have a laptop with them as all courses require it.
Likes (Student Life): Walmart is one of the biggest super market in Canada and I always do grocery shopping from that store. I got all the Indian foods which I want from Walmart. Also, panchavati named Indian grocery shops are here in GTA area where anyone can buy all Indian foods.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): I came here in December 2022 and since then I have searched for part time job. But still, I have not received any job as in this winter time it is tough to find a job. Also, reference is required here at most places in order to get a particular job.

One should definitely join this college and course
Tips: This college and course have provided me with practical knowledge of subject which will undoubtedly assist me in advancing my career. The course is highly in demand and also helps the students to learn from the basic. Weather in Canada is gloomy and it rains all the time with few sunny days in summer.
