Hostel:

I have been staying in 1 bhk apartments with 5 sharing. It is quite difficult to adjust with so many people in just one room so we are going to shift in some months. The are where I stay is very safe and convenient from the university.

The reason I chose northeastern university is because of the curriculum they are providing. They provide us with laboratory experience and pre Co op experience so that is beneficial for future job requirements.

My pick was off-campus accommodation listed on Real Estate Search Engine Kijiji and it's better to finalize a place before departing to Canada. The accommodation is run by an Indian family and it's sharing. Rent is a fixed 450 CAD but can increase in future leasing. For the cost, I get my own bedroom and furnishing and electricity as well as laundry is included in the aforementioned cost

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.

There are options on campus and off campus. On campus living is expensive and most of the students stay off campus. There are plenty of off Campus housing options available. The Average room rent in for single person in St.Catharines ranges from 450$-600$ including utilities. If going for sharing a room then cost will be less.

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.

My residence was really fun and I met friends immediately. We had lots of get together and events. The dining and meal plan service was also satisfactory and the living conditions for my specific residence were good.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Hostel:

I currently live in a traditional residence and the building and location of it on campus I love. The Residence Life Staff (RLS) make rounds every night to keep the noise down by students and ensure we're saved but they also pound on the bathroom door before opening it to check on whoever's in there but it can easily scare anyone and it can be hard to answer when brushing your teeth or washing your face. They also consistently engage in conversation with the students on my floor instead of telling them to quiet down and go back to their rooms when they're very loud and it is well past the start of quiet hours.

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.

My accommodation is a 2BHK house. Rent differ from places to places.

There are many reasons. Job satisfaction and study are main reason.
