I wasn't sure what path I wanted to go into and this program allows me to explore different options. This college is also close enough to my house for me to commute since I did not want to live on residence.
Course Curriculum :
It covers many different areas and topics and does not avoid any sensitive issues (aboriginal peoples in Canada). I appreciate the wide range of subjects that are mandatory (psychology, Canadian diversity, philosophy, etc.).
Fees :
There are two fees per year (one for each semester) as well as an optional medical plan and an 'additional school fee', although I don't believe it is mandatory to pay anymore due to the new policy our government put in place.
Examination Structure :
It differs in each different class. For some I have two exams (midterm and final) worth 25-30% each, for other courses I have unit tests throughout the semester worth about 15% each. Most of my exams are multiple choice, but I?ve had two that were comprised of short answer and essay questions.
Faculty :
Most of my professors are highly knowledgeable and teach in a way that is both informative and interesting. Some even teach at a university as well which is helpful as this program is designed to help students transition into university.
