Close to home. I didn't have to move out of my hometown. However, the rent near UBC is too high. Also, since I live far away transmitting each day takes around 3 hours. It's a beautiful college though.

Course Curriculum

9

It's ok. It has a lot of project work which is good so therefore we can learn how to work in groups. Problem-solving as well as practical learning. The exams can be quite difficult especially in the second year.

Faculty

8

It could be much better. A lot of the teachers seem to be hired just to research and can't teach. Yet other teachers are stellar.

Accommodation

4

Fees

Pay for tuition. And other random things like gym and pool and they're always adding a bunch of other things.

Examination Structure

1-1.5 hour midterm. Sometimes 2 midterms. There is usually always a final that lasts about 3 hours. The exams seem pretty fair depending on the professor.
