Simon Fraser University

SFU provides absolute worst service to the students. The student services staff are unreachable and even if you get hold of them they'll do their best not to help you. Don't believe me? give them a test call for yourself and see if you can get hold of anyone from student services.

Happy to take your money without providing access to the classes you need to graduate. Also ensures there is more than enough bureaucratic process that you can’t actually receive your accreditation you did earn.Spend your money elsewhere if you want to complete your program in a timely manner and wish to have anything to show for it.

If you want to go to university to meet new friends, I would go elsewhere. Even though there is housing there, it is definitely a commuter college. In general, if you're taking studies that are more challenging, you're kind of forced to go to school for 5 years for undergraduate if you need to keep your grades up. More money for them. Less for you. Be prepared to be stranded there at least once or twice a year during winter due to buses having lack of winter tires or chains.

formerly a student at SFU. I'm glad to be back here in this beautiful fall weather. It's crisp and clean outside. There are fewer vehicles and less pollution on the mountain. The university has undergone significant changes in terms of appearance, technology, and environment. There are numerous new developments being built. More cafes, stores, and bars are opening up here. Here, faculty, staff, and students may all more fully appreciate university life. The rebranding, interior design, and infrastructure have all been quite successful. Indeed, this may be a popular tourist destination.

A great university with strong business program. Located on the top of Burnaby mountain, which provides the perfect location for higher level education. Plus, it has more snow days which may cause cancellation of classes, a bonus for some students, I’m sure. It also has a strong co-op program to help students gain some practical experiences before their graduation.I personally did the co-op program before my graduation, 4 terms of it, a little extreme, but it helped to pay for my tuition fees, which is not getting any cheaper these days, and I believe the experience(Accounting and Internal Audit) also helped me to obtained the job offer right after my graduation (I had 1 week off after my graduation before starting my full time job as an accountant, which I kind of regret a little now, lol).I wish the sky train could connect from production way station to the campus though, but the bus run is frequent enough. There’s plenty of developments around campus now which provides convenient rental units for students, enable them to walk to school, although price is not cheap. There are plenty of restaurants on the east side of the campus. The parking is a lottery system, and there are a lot of people fighting for it.Overall, a great school, and I’m a proud graduate from SFU.

I’ve come to the Burnaby SFU Campus to visit, during a volleyball tournament. From what I’ve seen it is a beautiful campus. Since it is located at the top of Burnaby Mountain, the views are fabulous! Today it was raining but the clouds were up high. Later in the day, the clouds descended and the fog gafe the campus an otherworldly feeling. The architecture of the original campus (circa 1960-70) is very nice even in the unfinished concrete grey. Lots of amazing angles for a photographer to explore.It is nice that the the gymnasiums and aquatics Center are located in the same complex and attached to the visitor parking. These are easy to find not just on the map but also driving through campus.To the east you have the main campus square, main library, and newest residences, as well as shopping area (with A&W, Starbucks, subway, TimHortons, Uncle Fahti’s and a few independent restaurants) There is also a large grocery store in the same strip.To the west, you have the campy eatery, which boasts Buffett-style dining for breakfast lunch and dinner (at least on Sundays) Didn’t get to eat here but the price isn’t bad ($21.49) per adult).I enjoyed this famous more than I have enjoyed the UBC campus. Worth a visit!

Nice school, lots of fresh air and black bears everywhere! Transit can be tricky in winter, school rarely closes on snow days.

Love the peaceful atmosphere on Burnaby Mountain. Plus, there are good options for take out!

A very beautiful campus situated in the hills, even though I visited the place on a rainy day but the whole uni is top notch. A very big and wonderful campus, I'm sure on a sunny day the views from the uni are breathtaking
