When applying to a post secondary
institution, what are some of the first things you do? Do you look at the
program outline, the faculty, and actual location of the school? And don’t lie
to yourself as you’re reading this, because I know you don’t do any of these
things - I didn’t!
As a 20 year old, and with 1 year of
University under my belt, I wanted to make a choice that I was actually going
to be happy with. So I did the most logical thing and that was to ask friends who
were currently at potential schools as well as people who graduated from that
school, how difficult it was for them to get a job once they had finished their
studies? This was the key for me.
I knew that I wanted a school that
would give me hands-on experience as well as a solid foundation in the fundamentals
- so I could get that job. My first choice was Humber College, followed by
George Brown and Seneca. I weighed my options and after discussing it with
alumni, I knew Humber was the right choice for me! Humber could give me the
blend I was looking for.
Humber understands that each student
has a different needs and varied reasons for coming to Humber. Some come to
Humber on their path to University, others come to get the skills and knowledge
needed to get a job! This flexible approach also appealed to me.
So here I am - on my way to graduating
- and loving it!
