Overview

This particular college has great statistics for the outcome of student success. There are great resources that are there for students ad and as well as the friends that I wanted to make would have never happened if I didn't choose st Lawrence college in Kingston.

Fees

The fees for me were easy with the assistance of OSAP. I also was in residence so there were extra charges that were expensive but worth since I got a great roommate. The supplies are a little pricey but for the most part, everything is expensive so for me, I want to push by all my classes and get the dream job and be able to pay and live without hesitation.

Overview

Cornwall is a pretty quiet area and 70% of the population is oldies so there are no fucking fights here and no drugs over here. And the best part is I got the job over here in The Home Depot where all the co-workers are good to me. Overall, I love Cornwall.

Fees

Fess structure is a little bit hard for January intake students and I am January intake student only. Every 4 months we had to pay a kind of 8000$ like crazy. And other codes were extra and almost paid 1400$ for codes but these should be included in fess only to help international students.

Overview

I loved the campus and the town of Kingston. When I looked around the town it felt like a place that could be home. Everyone was friendly and the area is beautiful. I thought the school reflected that too.

Fees

In addition to tuition there was charges for supplies, materials, and printing. I don't recall exact numbers but it certainly isn't cheap. Having to constantly buy our own supplies for projects can add up as well.
