Brock University really stood out for me when it first set foot in my high school for conducting a seminar for it's various programs and that their business as well as accounting programs had placed alumni at the best firms around the country itself and brock was my first choice incase my plans of studying in the US fell apart. I like the program's diversification and how well planned it is along with it's practical technique of educating current students.

To do MBA was my dream from a long time. I was looking for options in USA and Canada. Since I applied for Jan intake there aren't many options available in Canada as major intake will be fall and Canada has limited universities unlike US.I applied for Brock because it has good co-op program and option to complete general MBA. At that point of time I didn't want to choose any specialization and Brock has this option of completing general MBA.I got admits in US universities though but my main reason to choose Brock was because of its location in Canada. As MBA does not come under STEM in US the opt will be one year so I choose Canada to avoid any immigration issues in US.

Fees:

fees will be around 70,000 Canadian dollars including all extra fees.

It is in an amazing location with great professors. I also knew people who went here that I really respected and heard that it was the best school for my program. I fit in well when I came to visit this school and liked the overall atmosphere and environment. It is a fun and educational school that I really enjoy attending.

Fees:

The fee structure is very high but there are a few scholarships that can be applied for. For instance, I have received a scholarship every year for getting a certain grade average in my studies. I also recently received a mental health and wellness scholarship for my past struggles with mental and physical health and desire to teach this.

Nice location and a good program. Also fairly close to my home and I love the city it is located in. It is all around the amazing school. It's also a really nice size and suitable for me. The people here are terrific.

Fees:

Tuition and textbooks are very expensive. The living plan and meal plan for the first year was also quite expensive, more so than my liking.

Good co-op program. I was offered some incentive to attend money wise but the main reason I went to Brock is that I have family in the area and I was able to move in with them to save a lot of money in living expenses.

Fees:

$700-800 per course. About $1500 in ancillary fees. Science courses usually have an equipment and chemical disposal fee of $50-200.

Had a great program and scholarship! Child and youth studies is exactly what I would like to go for and it was offered as a 3-year degree which is fantastic. The size of Brock is also perfect for me and it just felt like the right place.

Fees:

Tuition cost $6000 roughly (plus scholarship), parking passes are $400 each and $250 is charged for optional medical coverage.

Brock was the closest to home but also was the best looking campus that I had seen and that instantly drew me in. I had done a few program tours and knew that I would have the best time at Brock. I also have friends from high school who are upper years in the same program, as well as my high school track coach who is an alumnus for the same program.

Fees:

Aside from tuition, our fees included health and dental insurance, as well as a bus pass for the year which all were optional. There was also a $1 day care fee, lab fees for my biology and human anatomy classes and for first years in residence without insurance there was a $40 charge each semester for coverage over our belongings.
