Hi guys,
I got accepted to BBA program as a transfer student. Though my transfer credits havent been evaluated yet.
I am also awaiting for the results of admission from several other unis in Canada. However, I find MUN to be the best option because of the cost of educatioin and life.
The only thing I doubt is the place itselft. I dont care about climate very much since I myself come from a cold place. What is more important -
1. Job opportunities both before and after graduation. I read different sources on the internet, some say that economy is developing rapidly and unemployment is not as bad as it used to be, others state that its one of the worst in Canada.
As far as i know, st. john's is a developing country having more than 200k people. As per the Job market, it really depends upon the type of degree that you are going to do. And since you are going to come for Undergrad. You still have 4 years to go atleast. I have seen many students who graduated and are now working in Newfoundland.
2. Is social life great? The city seems to be tiny and the pace of life seems to be slow, plus it is a remote place.
The overall environment is great!! The people are very friendly and extremely nice. The whole atmosphere at MUN is good too with all the facilities and all. The teaching method and everything is interactive.
What are your views and plans on these topics? It would be great if somebody who already study in MUN could write something about the life in St. John's, im sure everybody woud be interested.
