L'administration est kafkaienne a souhait Poly a du mal a se moderniser: le site web de l'ecole n'a pas change en 15 ans par exemple. Beaucoup de discrimination et d'autres problemes d'ordre ethique. Une politique de bourses obscure qui donne les pleins pouvoirs aux professeurs lesquels exploitent les étudiants comme du cheap labour. Cours faibles.

If your goal is to get a job after your degree don't come here. They trap student to stay by giving extreme classes so your gpa drops so low even if you apply elsewhere if you don't like it other schools won't take you. Having 30+ r-score won't save you. They have crappy connections with companies making it difficult to get an internship or a job.
