University of Ottawa

An excellent and beautiful university. It was founded in 1848 as the College of Bytown by the Mary Missionaries. Currently, this public university has more than 3,000 staff members and more than 34,000 students. Almost 70% of the classes are given in English and the rest in French. It has residences for the students, a Bioscience complex, Advance Research complex, Faculty of Engineering, Campus Boutique, Morisset Library, Languages Institute, Music School, Minto Sports Complex, Fitness Centre, Matt Anthony Field, Faculty of Education and many other facilities and things.

(Oct 13, 2017) A really nice and cozy university.If they accept me I will move in a heart beat

One of the top ten universities in Canada i guess. Good structure n sensitive to the needs of PWDs as well

Great university! Very nice campus, very stylish building!

The biggest scam of a students career, don’t waste your money on the cold, lifeless overly woke “bilingual” (it’s only french they care about) useless excuse for a university. You couldn’t get me to go back there if they paid for my entire education.

Very helpful and clear guidance for students. The faculty admistrative department is readily available to answer student queries in person. There are other universities in Ottawa who are still working remotely and students find it very difficult incase of queries and there is no in person guidance.

This is the university to choose to connect with Canada's next political leaders. The staff here are highly efficient, the affordable university buffet with the biggest selection + gaming systems built in is second to none, and the staff eagerly connect students with scholarship opportunities to intern or study abroad. I did 2 exchanges in Paris & Hong Kong through UOttawa's business school and was put in a program paying $4000 (in addition to internship salary) to do a summer internship in China or the United States. Clubs here are plentiful, and the campus population is very accepting of individual differences. Location? Always lots going on in Downtown Ottawa, just across the street from campus. Fellow Ontarians, note that 18 is the legal drinking age in the Quebec half of this city, you're legal from year 1, unlike in other Ontarian cities. Take my word for it, in comparison to schools like ESSEC France, UOttawa is top notch (shots fired at ESSEC! You'll know what I'm talking about if you've exchanged there.)

It is a decent University, however, it seems to be riding on a reputation that was awarded many years ago. Carleton University used to be in a distant 2nd for the Ottawa area, now, not so sure. Ottawa University needs to really improve. STOP favouring French speaking over all others. Raise the bar once more. I understand that there is a huge gap in the market for French universities in the area, that is NO reason to lower standards. If anything, it should raise them. Excell my location. Residence meal plan too pricey and needs much improvement. #localguide

We were at the arena of the GG's. The main arena is very. The practice one is just that for practice with no spectators unless you go to 2nd level to watch. A nice bilingual University in Ottawa.

The school tries really hard to rectify any mistakes it makes, its affordable (im from ontario) thanks to OSAP, their teachers are really nice and they have adapted tremendously to the needs of Covid.
