Why I love my program
I have always been interested in how the brain, body, and mind interact so I like that I can combine my love for science and psychology through this program. I have a general interest in biology so having the flexibility of choosing biology courses to fulfill my science requirements is a perfect fit for me. I also have to mention how incredibly knowledgable, supportive, and approachable the professors are!
Why University of Waterloo?
After visiting on a campus tour in grade 12, I could see myself being a student and part of the Waterloo community. Everyone I met was welcoming and ready to help in any way they could. The people I meet as a current student are still the same way, so I really love the student community. Another key motivator of choosing Waterloo was because of its esteemed academic status.
