Greetings everyone!
I apologize in advance for the wall of text, but all the help and advice are greatly appreciated!
I’m a graduate from Brazil and recently I decided to continue my academic studies – 4 years graduated in Business & Marketing – and thinking about Canada to do so. But firstly some explanation, since it’s my first time “out on my own” I decided to play safe and contact a travel agency to guide me in searching a good place, college/university to study. They worked with only 1 college in Canada, which was the Georgian College, I researched it and found mixed reviews about the institution – most utterly hated it and some liked it – found in collegetimes.co. It left my with a fair bit of insecurity, I’m not looking for tourism, much less partying, but for good viewed, serious institution of higher education. I told the agency about it and they recommended me to ILAC, whom work with international students placement in colleges based on their profile, they sent me an English test and a few questions about what course I wanted. I got a “High Advanced” result in English but they still recommended me to do 4~8 weeks of academic level English. But more importantly, they recommended me 6 institutions on the Business and Marketing program: Seneca College (Toronto), George Brown College (Toronto), Humber College (Toronto), Georgian College (Barrie), Niagara College (Niagara) and Sheridan College (Mississauga). All of these have similar tuition per year and same length (2 years), however, all of those didn’t have good ratings at collegetimes.co. Ironically, their Facebook page have pretty good ones (4,5/5 usually), and since Facebook does not allow to remove reviews (unless it breaks their TOS) I don’t know what to make of it. Are those colleges good or not? I already tried to look on my own for some of the best Universities in Canada but those are out of budget for me. On further research it seems that Seneca its quite challenging for graduate students, and George Brow appear on 1st place in Canada top 50 research colleges.
I’m confused about those colleges, I can’t go to Canada just to meet each one, what can you guys tell me of it, any recommendations?
Also, I will not be allowed to drive, so only public transport use.
