I love Georgian College. Having attended university previous to this I can say that the small classroom size has allowed me to have an amazing relationship with my teachers, more opportunity to ask questions, and much more hands on experience. It is very organized, not only the staff but also the students are so friendly and welcoming every day. The school is all connected and easy to navigate. Nothing but great things to say! As for the costs of going to college/university, you're going to have to pay basically the same (college/university respectively), and Georgian gives you the best quality available for what it costs. The gym is also nice with lots of equipment. :)
