Heard about it through research and recommendations. $400 application fee, chose the school for its good reputation and high ratings. Was originally studying ECE but didn't like it so I dropped the course and just finished with General Arts courses: English, Mass Media, Philosophy, Sociology, and Psychology.
Faculty
The faculty was great, the teaching was a bit fast so you really had to really pay attention in class or ask for help and stay after class to get extra help.
Placement
The average Early Childhood Education salary in Canada is $32,175 per year or $16.50 per hour. Entry-level positions start at $23,424 per year while most experienced workers make up to $49,998 per year.
Accommodation
$5000 fee for the on-campus experience, $500-$1000 for a food card, any damages to the campus property are between $500-$1000. Students are very loud and obnoxious mostly, throwing parties on weekends, but if you focus on your studies and make friends help you stay on track then you should be good.
Exams
I joined this program because I thought kids are cute and adorable (which they are) but it's just a little too much hands-on more than I would've liked. So I just finished taking General Arts programs to complete the year and get those credits. Scored about 67% on the courses. I will eventually plan to go back and complete my schooling for something I haven't figured out yet.
Events
Frost week where you get to meet your roommates and classmates. Usually a bbq, and a general welcome to the school. And if you live on campus they have themed parties, movie nights, and bar nights where there's a school pub.
Fees
School fee is about $4000 and when you include textbooks that?s another $500, and then food card $2000, residence fee is about $5000 separate from school. And if there?s any damages you do to the property they will charge you an extra $500-$1000. In Total, you're looking at an average price of $15 000.
