I do not recommend this university to anyone. The majority of administration and student help offices are empty due to budget cuts and many faculties are missing a number of profs needed to teach key courses, yet the university recently built a multimillion dollar gymnasium. Education is clearly not priority at this institution.

I attend the Winnipeg Campus and I am absolutely appaled by the lack of support and encouragement from staff. The extensive amount of money I pay to be a student and attend numerous programs/courses, for what? To give 110% every day only to have my marks lowered because "I did too well and wasnt fair to other students"?! I wish I could write more..

The lecturers and Professors are not even a little bit supportive. This school is the worst school ever. I wouldnt recommend this school to any of my siblings. Especially if you are an international student, this school would frustrate the heck out of ya. Better go to a school with a lot of support in place. Worst school ever!!!

Not recommended. Had nothing but bad profs who don't care about their students. Transferring somewhere else next year.
