How Students Rated This University
- Student Teacher Interaction 4.1
Practical experience-oriented programs
I am currently studying in my 6th semester of the Business Administration - Marketing program. There have been many changes during my studies, including those made to immigration laws, which is why the college has closed some programs and live student asvisement. In general, the main disadvantage of Sheridan is the lack of advice, very often you have to ask teachers or other students for something, because it's faster and more convenient than sending a request to the student assistance center. The main advantage of Sheridan in terms of my program is the teaching style and professors. Very often, these are industry professionals, CMOs, or business owners, who sometimes even give us the opportunity to work with their clients or put our knowledge into practice. It's a very rewarding experience, and overall, I can recommend Sheridan if your goal is to gain experience rather than a degree and if you've already been through college experience before.
Blended Learning is Convenient
Some of the online classes are hard to understand because of teachers bad mics or accents but overall it's okay and actually pretty convenient not having to worry about communing and getting dressed and stuff. The slate website for online learning is fine but the other ones suck and will make you feel like you're using Internet explorer back in 2008.
Good overall
Very good school with a diverse and nice people. The staff are knowledgeable and always ready to help when needed. I also had a positive experience with the Co-op internship. Since I completed my courses online, I can't speak much about the social scene or student clubs.
