Compared with other study abroad countries, studying in Canada does have incomparable advantages. When going to Canada to study at a university, the question of choosing a Canadian university is a difficult problem that students will encounter. How should students make judgments when choosing the school they want to apply for? Let us explain to you below, hoping to help you.

When studying in Canada, students need to think carefully about the following factors:

1) First, the year the university was founded

Academic achievements are the result of accumulation. Although newly established universities have advanced equipment, beautiful campuses and vigor, it is difficult to make a name for themselves in the short term; on the other hand, Canadian universities with a long history, although the school buildings are relatively old and the style is traditional, but long-term. Since then, even if there are not many talented people, there will be some outstanding elites. In this way, the accumulation of achievements and experiences of dozens or hundreds of years has already established a certain foundation and honor in the academic and social circles.

2) Second, the number of teachers and students

These two figures directly reflect the size of the university. Many smaller universities have only one building and lack resources, not to mention that there is no large lawn for people to sit and sleep on, and even the library has very few seats. Other facilities, such as student centers and sports fields, are mostly outside the scope of the university. , or none at all. In addition, the courses offered by small universities are also limited, and there are few subjects available to students. Sometimes, students at large universities will take a few more special subjects for the same degree in name, such as Bachelor of Commerce. Although the conditions of small universities are insufficient and their development is greatly restricted, they also have their advantages:

(1) The number of students is small, and the teachers are considerate to the students, especially the foreign students with poor English, taking care of the larger universities, so the relationship between teachers and students is very cordial.

(2) Due to its inferior reputation, enterprising small universities will work hard to develop, and under the concerted efforts of teachers and students, surprising achievements often appear.

In addition, the teacher-student ratio can be calculated from these two figures. In theory, the higher the teacher-student ratio, the less teachers take care of individual students.

3) Third, the library's holdings

The quality and quantity of materials provided by the library often determine the achievements of Canadian universities. The library has a high collection of materials, and students can easily find materials. Otherwise, they know that certain books or journals are suitable, but the library does not have them, so students will go to the university. Looking elsewhere is time-consuming and troublesome. If you use other secondary information, it will affect your grades.

4) Fourth, the publications published by the university

Universities that can regularly publish publications for a certain subject are naturally not bad at the level of the subject.

5) Fifth, understand the school's language of instruction and admission requirements

However, many schools provide dual enrollment for international students. Students without TOEFL or IELTS and other language scores can first go to the language center in the university for language study, and then they can enter the professional courses after meeting the professional entry requirements. Similarly, even if you have language scores, you may not be able to directly enter the study of professional courses. The school will make an evaluation before deciding whether to enter. Of course, meeting the language requirements does not mean that there is no need to study any more. With the continuous deepening of professional courses, students still need to strengthen their language learning.
