How I get involved: Outside of being a Science Ambassador, I volunteer with Science Outreach, am an executive member for UWSSA, and volunteer within my cultural community. I have also joined a lot of clubs on campus, both science-related and not, and have volunteered at You@Waterloo Day.

Why I love my program

I love my program because of the flexibility it offers me! The courses that I take fulfill the prerequisites for various professional schools, allowing me time to figure out what I want to pursue. The program is filled with lots of like-minded students who create a motivating learning environment. I also enjoy the summers off to travel and volunteer.

Why University of Waterloo?

I chose the University of Waterloo because of its reputation and welcoming environment. It is also home to both the Pharmacy and Optometry schools, along with well-renowned research labs.
