CANADIAN UNIVERSITIES Q&A ✩ UofT, Western, UBC, Queen's, Waterloo, McMaster, McGill etc. | Allie C.

[@AllieC]

update: hello! so glad that you guys are enjoying the video :) so sorry i couldn't have included more unis...if you're currently attending a post-secondary institution in canada and would be happy to answer questions, comment your socials in a thread under this comment so people are able to reach out to you!

[@ericgalowitsch9662]

You forgot another large uni York University where there's about 60,000 students.

[@AllieC]

@@ericgalowitsch9662 there's actually over 90 universities in canada! unfortunately i don't know anyone at york :( which was why it wasn't in this video. honestly, i wasn't expecting this to do that well so hopefully if i ever make a similiar one in the future I can get a wider diversity of programs & unis included!

[@ericgalowitsch9662]

@@AllieC Well luckily for you I recently graduated from York (this year)

[@jenniferalysee6880]

Hey if you need any connections from Guelph/Guelph-Humber I have attended classes at both campuses. If you want to do this again I would love to participate! instagram-@jennkoehn

[@bethanyloshusan2244]

i think it might be interesting to talk to more students who have attended university both online and in person (upper years) to compare their experience. I'm in my last year at Carleton (in linguistics) if you want an upper year person there (@zxcvbethany on ig)

[@saagithyasuresh3046]

Finally! Someone put it out there. This is much needed since no one really talks about Canadian universities.

[@Amanda-bg7ib]

0.0 i cant imagine how long this took to make, but thank you so much for doing this! Definitely we need more Canadian uni vids like yours

[@TheBlader2720]

this is like University Infinity War (Canada Edition)

[@isabellavetere9098]

These students were absolutely amazing to do this for all the grade 12s of this year (2020/2021) that can't go on actual tours and stuff that the uni usually offers that makes it easier to ask questions

[@nathaniacherryl2443]

i dont usually write a comment on a youtube video. ive been watching your videos for quite a while and i’ve got to say its been very helpful for me in terms of choosing major and uni since i’ll be graduating from highschool next year. your videos are super informative and open a new perspective for me. i recently got interested to study in canada and have been looking at those universities then i stumbled upon this video and omg i cant thank you enough for uploading such an informative content😭💛

[@AllieC]

omg i'm so glad to be able to help

[@halle2819]

an absolute legend for going through all this video and editing it all into an HOUR long video, WOO !!

[@AllieC]

heheh thank u!! the second one is even longer atm.... :o thanks for sharing your experiences with us xx

[@briannalu3675]

HEHEH THANK UUU

the second one is even longer...rip me

[@revisign]

sooo excited to watch the whole video:)) thank u for this ❤️❤️

[@AllieC]

hehe hope you enjoy & find it helpful

[@danajo1996]

I feel like this video has allowed many current 12s to break their negative stereotypes for unis for sure. At least for me it did. Thank you for making such helpful video.

[@mehularora1813]

it would be awesome if you could do an interview with some international kids on how they manage everything

[@anitacmo]

Mehul Arora yes that’s a great idea

[@krishmehta4063]

It would be great for us

[@sarakl8393]

Thank you so much for making this! I’m planning to go into mcgill next year, and this really helped!

[@AllieC]

yay glad you enjoyed!! hope everything goes well :)

[@arinushka6816]

Omg I am too :)

[@sarakl8393]

ari. Omg YAYY!!

[@angelafong7686]

Great! You’re in luck as after you got your degree, you will find out that a degree from McGill opens lots of doors for you internationally, I live in the States now & McGill gave me a great education as well as a wonderful career too! Keep up the good work !

[@LovedDoxology68]

This popped up when I was surfing on KZbin! Graduated from U of T in 1988 in Economics. Very refreshing to watch this. I am a Singaporean n my son is looking to get into Med School in Singapore. Son took the IB as well and scored a 44 in 2018. He is now an Officer in the Army cos it is mandatory to be in army for 2 years.

Thank you x1000 this is such a life saver. Not enough info online about Canadian universities. Especially from current students.

[@imadethisaccounttocomment6327]

The time stamps on the description box changed my dam life Thank you!!!

Thank you so much Allie and all your friends! I so confused between Waterloo and McMaster but this video really helped!

[@alwayscreatingio]

this is really dope!!

[@AllieC]

thanks steven!

[@marcohernandez4605]

This video is gonna be a trend setter!. Really creative to have many students in a single video ! Also, Ravens shout out!!

this is amazing, i’m from london so don’t know much about canadian universities so this was so helpful in making my decisions!! thank you for this love

aww i'm glad it helped! x

[@yifeitao8083]

WHAT A HEFTY ONE! EXCITED FOR PART2!!

[@AllieC]

WOOHOO

[@AllieC]

thank u for the amazing idea

[@vishalinarayanan4340]

I'm an alumni from Mac-- but seeing such a thoroughly well-put and informed video always make me happy. I usually present for high schools in terms of university success, so I'll definitely re-direct future audiences to this video in the future!

[@AllieC]

that’s awesome to hear! glad to be able to help as I know I had a lot of these questions when I was applying for unis :)

[@adaaleide]

i can’t imagine how helpful this video is for graduating seniors, props for gathering so many schools in one video. i’m going into my third year at uottawa for psychology (and i’m in french immersion) if anybody going through the comments has a question!

[@tarrie8937]

How's the psychology program and how are the acceptance rates of the uni? Would u say u enjoyed ur experience there so far?

[@adaaleide]

@@tarrie8937 oh not hard to get into. psychology is the same at any school you go to so i’d recommend looking into the other stuff the school offers like academic support, residences, and comparing those. i’ve loved my experience, despite the racist administration.

[@Isabella-hp4mc]

Nicole was superrrr helpful for me! Great video Allie!

[@annakim761]

THANK YOU!! literally applying for Canadian unis this year and this vid really helps. Thank you for your effort guys! :)

yayay so glad you found it helpful!

[@ginaxs7975]

I dont think being competitive is always toxic, it's sometimes helpful!

[@AllieC]

agreed!

[@faithwilliams6946]

Your channel has helped me sooo much through the uni application process! I hope to study health sciences as well so hearing about your experience makes the process more bare-able :)

[@AllieC]

yay so glad you've been enjoying!! happy to help :)

[@laeebachaudhary]

Oh my gawh!! Allie, I love this so much. I’ve been trying to get those marks for the Health Science Program. So far... McMaster is #1, but I’m having trouble finding out other Universities with that program. Girl, I have so many questions!!

[@laurashion6844]

to international students (who aren't americain), these universities are pretty expensive :(

[@AllieC]

i knoww :( tuition fees are always super high for out of country students

[@fuckywucky9272]

"Who aren't American"😭

[@nelsondendomo6687]

Actually we(Americans) have to pays as much as others. We are internationals. Despite Canada and USA relationship and sharing a borderline they are still 2 different countries. We don’t pay our taxes to Canada. Idk why you think we’d get to pay less

[@nelsondendomo6687]

@@fuckywucky9272 it’s false

[@fuckywucky9272]

@@nelsondendomo6687 I'm pretty sure she said that because our tuition fee's our outrageous IN America. So comparatively it's not to expensive. It's like attending out of state for us. So no it's not necessarily false

Wowwwwww omg i've been looking for something like this FOR A LONGGG TIME!! Amazinggg thank youuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Speaking as someone who went to waterloo and met Justin and Ben i can CONFIRM it was a good idea 😭😭😭

[@MathildeMalpartida]

this was very helpful!!! thank you for taking the time to make this for the students entering in fall 2020

[@mariateresaricharddias4590]

Loved your video!!! Especially Reena's part! Could you film a video where she explains more about her course, uni, work and activities?

[@DeathDestroyeRThuNdEr_A7mad]

9:47 Holy Smokes! 2 hours? That's some dedication, I honestly cannot imagine where she actually lives such that she calls a 'close' uni 2 hours.

[@AllieC]

LOL i think she meant relatively close in comparison to where a lot of us have gone! there are a two universities that are in the city but i would say mcgill is closest one out of town?

[@torischerle]

I just finished my 3rd year at uOttawa, I’m doing biology with the extended French stream 😊

[@AllieC]

that's awesome i love how ottawau provides an option to keep up French! it's been something that i've been struggling to implement into my studies and i don't want to lost all those years that i put in for immersion :/

[@torischerle]

Allie C. Yeah exactly! That was a major reason I chose uottawa😊

[@claraperrier8482]

I just finished my 1st year at uOttawa ! I’m doing biochem with a minor in music ! 😊

[@jackbarry8847]

Waterloo took over the finale! Nobody talked about CS or Math lol. Very different experience than Eng.

[@AllieC]

ah yes! like almost all my friends went into eng so it was hard finding someone in cs/math who wanted to participate :/ my friend will who is working through dev degree whilst studying at carleton spoke a bit about cs though!
