Could you make a video about the state of coop for life sciences and such ? i was wondering if the coop for life sciences was as fleshed out as the compsci ones . Great video btw, a lot of much insight for International Student who are not as informed when it comes to such niche topics.
This is the best youtube channel for tech allover and majorly for Waterloo... Btw coming there in Jan 22 for C.S😁... YOU ARE REALLY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND YOU HAVE REALLY GOOD PEOPLE SKILLS - PERIOD
Funny you should mention that. Just finishing up a video about how to get into waterloo cs right now. I talk about my marks too. Ill try to upload it tonight/tomorrow
Also HUGE difference between CS and Eng Is amount of work, the deep theory math stuff vs science courses, amount of programming, design courses, clubs/teams, freedom to take electives, more time off, heavier or lighter courseload
In the case that you're an international student who needs to choose: UW CS & WLU BBA with a price tag of $57,000 per year, and UWO Ivey + Economics with a $100k+ scholarship; which program would you choose realistically? (additional conditions are: your parents immigrate to Canada meaning you only need to pay int. tuition in the first year and the rest is covered as domestic students pay; you want to be a software engineer slightly more than an investment banker). I know this is a tough question, but really is an important decision to make as a grade 12 :( Thank you for your time!
Hey man, do you want to connect on LinkedIn so we can discuss making a video for international students? I get the question a lot but don't have any of the answers
Thanks so much for this video, it was a real motivator that I'm making the right choice. However, I'm an international student so I don't think I can pay off my debt as easily 😅
Hey Jason, I am planning in Waterloo this fall. Came across your video. Thanks for the info. I'm going for computer engineering honours with co op. Was confused between rev, v1 and cmh. My needs are a social residence plus like while I'm studying I need silence. I understand pretty opposites but if you could guide a little. Thanks.
You'll be living with another roommate in rev in the same dorm room, so that's probably not ideal for studying. Also, your floor can get rowdy depending on your floormates. V1 is like rev but with mostly single dorm rooms (no roommate), and you can mingle with all your floormates if they keep their door open. CMH has individual suites with individual rooms so you'll have privacy for studying. It won't be easy to mingle with people outside of your 1-2 roommates and I've heard it stays pretty quiet there. Then again, you don't really get what you choose right? I was given MKV, which was my last choice.
@@invictuz4803 oh got it, then I feel there might be study rooms in each floor I guess which should be a peaceful area to study at least if not the room. Anyways, thank you so so much for the information, I appreciate it.
subscribed.... I'm in the process of applying to university, Im still debating on whether to apply to cs or swe. from your video you make it seem very similar and cs sounds better because of the different elective options. could you do a video on how hard, or easy getting admission to either of the programs. You dont have to do a whole video just for me asking. I would like that tho, but you can just reply the comment thanks
I got admission in maths honours co-op, Im thinking to choose computational math, but I also wanted computer science major. Should I take computational math and try to get a transfer into cs?
@@mrmistyeyed3970 ohh I ended choosing Waterloo math since the courses are almost similar and since the co-op system will be really helpful after graduation
What was your average in highschool gr 11&12? Cause I know Waterloo cares heavily on your average. (I think a mid to high cut 90s cut off.) I’m afraid my gr 12 average might only be a 93 or 94 at the highest
There is! Look up "Master of Mathematics (Computer Science) | Cheriton School ..." on google for their info page. In short, you can have a Co-op option with any of the coursework, thesis, or research Master's, they just have slightly different requirements.
Hey Jason, I am currently a grade 12 student in Ontario and I recently made UW's computer engineering program (still waiting for CS). I was wondering if that's a good option for pursuing software development in the future. My goal is to work in big tech in the future. I have heard that everyone has access to the same co-op portal but do companies prefer CS/SE over CE?
Hi Hiten, I am currently a grade 12 student in Manitoba and I am applying to universities right now and I am confused between Waterloo’s computer science and computer engineering. I will really appreciate your help. And did you put cs as your first preference on OUAC Application or did you put CE as your first preference in OUAC application and what were your other preferences in OUAC Application. I am really confused. Thank you so much bro.
@@anirudh.chhabra I put CE as first option, CS as third option(didn’t make CS). I don’t think it matters tho. Engineering is more hardware/electrical focused with some courses about programming and CS is more math/software focused.
@@hitensharma7545 thank you for replying. How much software will i get to learn in CE and will that software that I learn in CE enough for getting software related jobs. Actually I don’t have any experience with electronics and hardware due to its unavailability in high school but I love computers and was just confused between CE and CS due to that. Thank you for helping me out bro.
@@anirudh.chhabra u take a few programming courses in CE but not as much as CS. I think most ppl in my class end up doing software so it shouldn’t be an issue as long as you are willing to learn on ur own as well
Very informative video, thanks! I just had a question, is I have gotten an offer of admission from the Physical Science department of Waterloo, and have applied to Computer Science(still awaiting their decision). Since I am equally inclined to do both, is Physical Sciences over there a good program?
@@JasonGoodison what if you have really low gpa??? I heard that it is very hard to get even a decent GPA like B... what if ur GPA is smth like C? would you still be able to get an internship in all 4 years?
Wouldn't call myself an expert on masters programs but I think it depends on what you want to do. If you're looking to do MDSAI, then naturally that's the best degree
Thats hard for me to answer. Ontario uses a different GPA system than America. I ended my degree with an 81 average (which may only be like 2.7 on the American scale but is more like 3.5-3.7 on the canadian one)
How is master in data science program in waterloo In India we have bachelors degree for 3 years and iam doing degree in data science, so can i apply for it

If you're living in Seattle, are you living there permanently? Do you like it there and do you know anyone ? I'm just trying to imagine how it's like living in a random city without knowing anyone or anything (during coops) And dw I know you're not a current student
glad i found your channel! I know it’s a bit late but I have a question, I’m from outside Canada and I’m interested in MS in CS, and I wonder if the assignments of every course are individual or group type? Is there a project (not an assignment) to make at the end of every term? Is CS at Waterloo strongly related to Maths? I would be delighted to know your answers!
Hey! Hope I can answer some of those questions well: 1. It depends on the course, but generally the courses are individual projects not group projects 2. As far as I know, no. There is no additional project on top of regular assignments. Bear in mind I did an undergrad at Waterloo, so a MS alumnus would know more
How important is English in CS? I’m still in -1 stream for English language at school ( enough to get in CS) but I just feel like my English is not as good as others ( I’m a non native speaker..). thank you responding!
Waterloo has a massive international student body. Many could go through regular life speaking their native tongue for almost everything outside of school itself. So in closing, I think you'll do fine. It's also a great opportunity to learn English at an accelerated pace. Good luck!
Of course it's a nerd school not a party school, still by a mile the best school in Canada if you wanna do CS or Finance S-tier: Waterloo A-tier: UBC, McGill, UofT B-tier: all the others
Love that more people are posting about Waterloo. Can you do a video comparing Waterloo and other top CS (American) school's benefits?
Good idea - I will look into this content!

damn, i'm jealous of that co-op deal. I haven't found a school that does that in the states. That sounds pretty sweet.

Loved the insight. Thanks for this video
Dude, as someone applying to Waterloo cs right now this insight is invaluable. Do you mind telling me what average you got in CS co-op with btw?

I got admission in maths honours co-op, Im thinking to choose computational math, but I also wanted computer science major. Should I take computational math and try to get a transfer into cs?
Very unlikely you’ll be able to transfer from math. They have locked that process down quite a bit
Did you end up choosing Waterloo math? I was in the same boat a few months back

Does MMath Computer Science have a Co-op option?
I'm confused as to apply for that or MDSAI as im a little biased towards coop
There is! Look up "Master of Mathematics (Computer Science) | Cheriton School ..." on google for their info page. In short, you can have a Co-op option with any of the coursework, thesis, or research Master's, they just have slightly different requirements.
Thanks will take a look there.
Thanks for getting to this question!
May you guide me about master in computer science at University of Waterloo
What would you like to know?
You are so helpful Mann!
Do you think Waterloo is a lot better than universities like UBC and UofT? ( computer science )
Depends on what you're looking for! If you want to go into academia, then probably UofT. But generally, I think Waterloo is the best option
Nice video thanks

Idek how I'm gonna get into this program lol. But I'll try my best to get at least a 98 average
What's the possibility that we will get hired during our co-op term??
High!
How much percentage of sudents get hired in co-op term ?

Wouldn't call myself an expert on masters programs but I think it depends on what you want to do. If you're looking to do MDSAI, then naturally that's the best degree
can you still get a software job if you major in physics and minor in cs?
Yes! My manager has a degree in physics
Hey , just had a small question. Is scoring 3 GPA every year possible for an average student for undergrad in Computer science at UWaterloo ?
Thats hard for me to answer. Ontario uses a different GPA system than America. I ended my degree with an 81 average (which may only be like 2.7 on the American scale but is more like 3.5-3.7 on the canadian one)
Great video
Thanks :)
is it too had to get into co-op and get the admission?
