This is NOT a hatred post, but just a piece of information for all the new students who are in the process of choosing a university to apply to. I cannot tell you about other universities, but this post is specifically for the students who wants to apply to the BUSINESS CO-OP PROGRAM at the UNIVERSITY OF LAURIER. If you are mainly going to Laurier for their business co-op you may want to rethink for many reasons. First of all they accept a lot of high school students into the program and they have LIMITED space for co-op. When they say it is competitive* it really is and for the students who do not make it, its quite morally discouraging and does not leave you in a good position because those students who do get admitted to the co-op program are at an advantage compared to you. NOTE: I am NOT saying anything bad about the University of Laurier. It is a great university and has a lot of other options. However, this system they have put in place is really not a fair one. There are tons of people lying their way into the program which leaves the people telling the truth really frustrated. ONE more thing is...you ONLY get one shot...if you do not pass the co-op interview (which is very very competitive with very limited space) you DO NOT get to re-apply again. They do have an appeal process put in place but that is good for nothing. It is just there to show that there's no glitches in the system. You appealing will NOT give you a space in the co-op...So please its just a heads up because i know people who have been in a very BAD situation even after having a 9.5 GPA.
