University Choices (ON,CANADA)

[Acnhduy]

Hello,

I'm looking to apply to engineering programs, possibly mechanical, at various schools but have heard mixed reviews of them. The top schools are probably UofT and University of Waterloo, but I don't think that my average will carry me there. Which narrows me down to a few schools, McMaster, Queens, and Western. I think McMaster is alright and I've seen other forums saying that it is one of the top schools, but there are also many other forums that say their engineering program is a joke, often compared to Queens. Can anyone give me any suggestions and personal experiences regarding these universities? I know McMaster has a co-op program which I am interested in, but I know Queens also has an internship program. What are their differences? Furthermore, what are the differences in opportunities provided by each of the schools such as co-op and internship placements? I also decided to mention Western as their admission average is relatively high which should be an indicator that it is a reputable program.

 

Thanks!
