Why I love my program
I love my program because there are so many different courses offered - I’ve really been able to explore my interests within Biology. One reason I chose my program was because I was able to take a bunch of biology courses right away in first year, which allowed me to discover what I was really passionate about. After first year there are so many course options so you can really focus on what you love or get an overview of a bunch of different areas in the field of biology!
Why University of Waterloo?
Everyone I met in the Science faculty at the University of Waterloo - from students to professors - was so enthusiastic about the programs and they really made it feel like it was the place for me! I felt welcomed into the school even before I came here and I still get that sense of community now.
