There are so many friends of mine in Canada , so they suggested me for this college and I got selected in this college.
Scholarship
No
Centennial college is one of the best college in Ontario Canada. This college has most professional professors as well as their study is out of mark.
Scholarship
No, I didn't receive any scholarship.
My college is really known for its hospitality program and the best faculty.
Centennial college is ranked number 1 in Ontario and offers a wide array of programs. They also offer co-op as an option for their diploma and advanced diploma programs. Popular among Indians too and proves to be a cost-effective option to enter the Canadian Job market and is based in Ontario near Toronto so students can easily move to downtown which is packed with all sorts of jobs.
Scholarship
Not at all.
Centennial is rated by the Ministry of Ontario no 1 college in terms of quality education and this college also has many campuses and many programmes are offered and I applied because college has a good reasonable rate and I know I'm going to get admission so I applied and got letter of offer
Scholarship
no i have not received any scholarship, But the college provides scholarship to students worth $5000. But there was a bursary fund that i received from college of $1000. I had to fill an application form for that.
I was always fascinated by the thought of studying abroad. When i got a chance i could not resist myself from not taking that opportunity. The thing i like is the diverse environment. I was able to connect with students from all over the world and i could share my ideas, thoughts, experience and a study environment. trust me the feeling is amazing when you sit with a bunch of students from all over the world. Lastly, financial planning is a dream career because Finance is one of the most emerging sectors in Canada. People there hardly save money for future. So financial planners and advisors come to rescue by teaching people the importance of saving money.
Scholarship
No
Centennial have a very unique fusion of theory and practical that drove me to join this college
Scholarship
No, I didn't
I like it, because of the number of students also the size of the campus.
Scholarship
No I did not received any scholarship but after coming here if you score 4 or 4.1 GPA in every semester you get great scholarship from college.
This is one of the best known college in Ontario. And 1st established college in Ontario. Even here faculties are good and well qualified.
