Why did you choose the University of Waterloo? I chose the University of Waterloo because of its unique co-op program that allows me to explore different career possibilities. The massive population of geese on campus is a huge factor as well:))

What do you like most about your program? I like that I get to explore different fields of psychology in my first 2-3 years of undergraduate before having to narrow it down for further educational pursuit.

Co-op experience/what you like about co-op at Waterloo? I'm on the search for my very first co-op position this fall, I hope it will go well with the wonderful WaterlooWorks platform!

One more thing about yourself? I was planning on returning to campus this fall, but I realized I really miss the time with my families and friends back at home so I cancelled my ticket 5 hours before my flight! It was so cool to (sometimes) mess up travel plans right before the time of departure!
