Which college is the best among Humber, Conestoga, Sheridan, George Brown or Centennial?

Aparna Das Posted On : February 8th, 2024

My brother studies at Centennial, and he quite likes his college. Sheridan is known for its strictness. But it has a good placement record, and so does Centennial. According to him, Humber and George Brown are average colleges. He does not know much about Conestoga College.

In the end, your choice of college should depend on your course. Each one of these colleges is best known for one or the other program. You must choose accordingly.

Which is the best college to study graphic design, Seneca, Centennial, Humber, or George Brown?

Dhrishti Tuli Posted On : February 8th, 2024

My friend is a graphic designer. He completed his studies in Graphic Designing from Toronto itself. According to him, Sheridan College in Oakville is the best choice for graphic designing courses, followed by George Brown College. Centennial has a dedicated school for this subject. 

Seneca and GBC offer graphic designing lectures on PC, while Centennial uses MAC for learning purposes. MAC is more popular among graphic designers because it offers a smoother experience for many design softwares. Even if such softwares have a PC version, they require less keystrokes/steps to complete a task on MAC.

Which one is better for studying in Canada? York University or Humber college? (take into consideration Humber college is a lot cheaper in tuition fees)

PM
Peter McDonald Posted On : January 13th, 2021
Studied at Glendon College, York University

As both are good colleges, there is no right answer to this question. Humber College ranks #20 and is among the Top 50 Research Colleges in Canada. It is also a lot cheaper if you compare a Humbler diploma and a York degree. If you are comparing equivalent credentials, there might not be a difference at all. A quick check online shows York's domestic undergrad fee to be $7,743. At Humber, a degree is $7,737.84. So tuition wise, there is not too much difference.

Humber College also provides 28 undergraduate courses whereas York university has a staggering 106. No. Of scholarships provided by Humber and York is 25 and 27 respectively.

As far as degrees are concerned, York would be better known as a degree-granting institution. However, others might value the more practical content of a degree from a community college (technically, Humber is now an Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning, but few people know that and still fewer could explain the significance).

Here’s a factual comparison between the two:

Content Humber College York University
Average Attendance Cost $12,924 $24,312
Acceptance Rate 28.4% 50.5%
Student Faculty Ratio 98:1 37:1
Exam Score(MIN) IELTS-6 PTE-60 TOEFL-84 GMAT-550 IELTS-6.5 TOEFL-80

Other factors would include the actual program to be studied (perhaps one is better than the other), the locations of the campuses, activities on campus, housing, etc.

After weighing all the pros and cons the student has to make the final decision. Keeping in mind your goals and what you want from your future you have to choose carefully and make the best of the option you choose.

What are the chances of getting a Canadian visa if someone is going for a graduate certificate at Humber College?

JK
Jackson Kitova Posted On : January 13th, 2021
Medicine & Surgery from Makerere University (2020)

Your chances of getting a Canadian visa depend a lot on the background of your education and financial background. Your travel history matters too to some extent.

You must ensure that your tuition fee is at least partially paid if not fully paid. Humber College is counted among the best institutions in Canada so properly fulfilling all the documentations and meeting all the requirements won't be very difficult. The chances depend mostly on your educational requirements and how have you performed so far.

After graduating from a program that meets the necessary requirements, you can apply for a Post Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), which may be issued for a duration equivalent to the length of your program or up to a maximum of three years. It is important to begin the application process as soon as possible after receipt of your graduation documents, because processing times can be lengthy at times.

Graduation documents are typically available from Humber four to six weeks after the end of a semester. For example, students who complete their program in April should expect to receive graduation documents in early June.[2]

Outside of Canada, visas can be acquired through your Canadian consulate, Embassy or High Commission. The length of time required to process your visa application will vary from country to country. You should allow at least one or two months, but be aware that processing can take even longer in some countries.

If you currently have or are applying for a study permit, and you wish to travel in and out of Canada, a temporary resident visa (TRV) or 'Visitor's Visa' may be required, as a study permit alone will not be enough to enter Canada. Holders of a study or work permit may apply from within Canada for a new temporary resident visa. If your temporary resident visa is about to or has expired, then you can apply for a new temporary resident visa from within Canada as long as you have a valid study permit.

Has anyone here attended Humber College or have some other recommendations for a business undergraduate degree in Canada?

MS
Marcus Samuel Posted On : January 13th, 2021
Studied at International School of Kuala Lumpur

In many ways, Humber College is a great place because of its program intensity and affordability. They also have very helpful and excellent professors so there is a good chance it’ll be a great experience for you. According to Webometrics, it ranked at #71 among Top Canadian Colleges in 2019. 

Humber College provides a B.Com in International Business programs with a duration for 4 years and is quite affordable as well costing about $57,988. Humber emphasizes hands-on, career focused learning and provides you with a broad range of credentials. Here are some top advantages of going to this place:

  • They offer incredibly intensive programs. You learn a lot in an incredibly short period of time. If you are willing to do nothing but study then you will get so much out of the program.
  • Humber college is budget friendly and excellent for students looking for affordable degrees.
  • Faculty is really good and they know what they are doing.
  • It also has special Human Resources classes and personnel who help you create the best resume, get interviews and land jobs. 

You have to work your way to the top at Humber to excel as a student. Get in touch with the professors and human resources to get the help you need to move ahead. You have to use your resources while you are there. However, you might not find many prospects there and might have to move to a better place to get a good job. 

You can try putting in your resumes in different offices and locations so your chances to land a good job increase. Being an immigrant, you’ll also be facing competition from other immigrants who have graduated and are looking for jobs in a job limited economy. However it all depends on your needs and what you want for your career.

A Humber education helps the students to take the classroom learning experience into the real world. These programs mix theory and hands-on learning, giving students the opportunity to gain practical experience in small classes and learn from expert faculty who have extensive industry experience.

While Humber is an incredible college, it does not boast of the same reputation as a traditional four year college. This by no means is a jibe at Humber College. If you don’t have the money for a four-year college, rather than going into debt and putting more burden on yourself, you should apply for Humber and work your way up there.
