Student Sound Offs
"It's a smaller campus than most, and it really gives much more of an opportunity for students and faculty to get to know one another. It makes for a really comfortable and enjoyable learning experience."
"There really isn't much choice when it comes to class options. There aren't many courses offered in some of the programs, and the required courses are always full."
"There are a ton of opportunities for student to get help with raising their grades or increasing their knowledge with services like tutoring, workshops for writing, etc."
"Everyone thinks that if you go to U Windsor, it's because you didn't get accepted anywhere else. But we have a pretty good campus, a friendly atmosphere, and lots of opportunities, depending on your program."
"Campus recreation offers a huge variety of classes, from belly dancing to kayaking ... and they are super affordable."
"It is a very homey feeling. The campus is small and easy to get around from building to building!"
"I really like the fact that Windsor is such a multicultural place. I have learned a lot about other religions and cultures during my time there."
"Our campus is the first campus in Canada to go completely wireless! I love that I can connect to the internet with my laptop anywhere on campus."
"It is right beside the Ambassador Bridge and the truck diesel smoke is horrible sometimes."
"Although we accept many more persons with lower averages than other universities, we have a much higher proportion of students getting accepted and actually finishing their schooling."
