I had choosen 3 colleges that I had heard about from other students and friends in Canada, from those GBC sounded more interesting, their connections and location made sure I could like the place. Also the course was more detailed in what I wanted to do compared to the other colleges.

Course Curriculum

7

We were the first batch with the pandemic. It was relatively a new of learning but certain updates were surely require. We missed on the industrial exposure due to COVID and I am yet looking for my experience in my field

Exams

This was back in 2019, but apart from College scores and IELTS my work experience played an important role

Placement

5

Sports and Events are affected due to COVID. Most placements that we were presented with were into Digital Makerting.

Internship

Most international students do not get paid opportunities which is the sad part about the co-ops. Biggers brands might pay but they hardly have placements for a large group

Fees

16573

Scholarship

No, just applied for the covid bursary.

Faculty

7

At the first semester we had 20 students in one batch and 40 in another. By second semester we had all 60 in as one batch. A few professors were not up to the mark based on the reputation of college.

Campus Life

Never experience due to COVID. Everything was online and for the first semester I was learning from my home country

Hostel

Living in Toronto can be expensive specially in downtown. College accommodations are also quite expensive and hence I have seen students living in remote places and traveling with public transport for college (when they had to). Downtown rents can usually start from $800 for a single room (if you share it with someone then your cost goes down). Suburbs just room can cost around $500
