Cape Breton University - [CBU], Sydney, Nova Scotia - Accommodation

Off-campus. by kijjii.ca, it was good. by networking also. food expense everything is paid by father, there is no jobs basically, so many indian students and it is such a small town not that much opportunites, and university people wont help you with any thing specially about jobs.

This is a so-called university, which offered me a Post-graduation in petroleum engineering in my offer letter, as I have my degree certificate now in that they have mentioned as Bachelors of Petroleum engineering. I don't know how this is fair to me I already have a bachelor's in chemical engineering, now this is done they are not going to change it.

One great thing was that there was a cab to pick me from the airport to the room I rented so I saved $15 rest you need to talk with uni beforehand.

Its a nice community and beautiful location. This side of the country is less established so more scope of development and opportunities. Rest all depends what you looking for!

Campus accomodations were exhorbitantly priced with no meal plans where as off campus housing opened more opportunities for students to mingle with the community itself. I loved being within the community.

Because of this picturesque place and Cape Breton being a welcoming place. Moreover my course only had 6 accredited colleges and Cape Breton University is one of them. So why not take full advantage of the area and study at the same time whilst being within the community and growing up. One of the best decision ever made.

I am living off campus because living on campus is more expensive than living off campus. My living expenses are almost around $650 per month which includes 400 dollars for room rent and rest is for meal.

After completing my MBA I decided to study more about specific field. I applied in lambton college for the supply chain management program but I did not get an offer letter for that program and I also applied in University for the same and I got offer letter from cbu,so I opted this University.

I chose to live off campus to explore more places and since we get to spend the entire day in the University for classes and I chose to stay off campus to prevent the monotony of life and since I have a special interest in cooking I like cooking different meals for myself according to my mood as it was compulsory to add a meal plan if we chose to stay on campus which by the way is explicit. I've myself tried the buffet once and It was awesome!

I got to know about this University through a friend. Since I am a dentist by profession I wanted to pursue my further education In Canada in the same profession and this University with this particular course opened the gates of opportunities and not just that an additional offer of being a health inspector in Canada which is a very elite profession. The admission Process was done by submitting a application fees of $103 and by showing the proof of my academic credentials in India along with the IELTS exam. It was the only college I applied for because of the friendly nature of the staff and the excellent job and placement opportunities at this University.

I lived on the off-campus, 7 kilometers away from the campus along with my bestie and other native friends. The house was supported with Wifi and oil burner for heat supply. It was a home having a 1minute walk from the bus stop.

I completed a Doctor of Pharmacy from India and I aspired of pursuing higher studies in Canada. My best friend in the college, after her studies, flew to Canada,to one of the most beautiful campuses in the world for public health. My admission procedures was a big story, I got placed within 1 month of after completion of my Indian education( to the best of my knowledge, no one ever had a chance to get enrolled in a prestigious institution within a short span. My friend helped me with all the procedures at the university.
