Dalhousie has one of the most beautiful university campuses I've ever been on. I stayed in one of the newer residences for a month in the summer and absolutely loved it. The campus is teeming with life and is really close to downtown which is nice.
By Gerb Ding | February, 2018completely ablidged in canada, not to do what was requested or contracted, to do the opposite of such.
By Olivia Hungerford | July, 2017This utter piece of trash uni does not deserve a star; rather it should be taken out & shot! Can't say for ALL uni's in Canada...but I've studied in a few already and it's been the most abysmal experience due to pathetic, substandard quality of education & professors, library, students & opportunities and just fails across the board really. All that glitters is NOT gold...this garbage uni is certainly an absolute waste of money for international students. On the positive side, there's no lack of ignorant, arrogant, impolite and condescending idiots in the faculty, administration and student groups. Inspiring minds...sure did inspire me to write this review!This utter piece of trash uni does not deserve a star; rather it should be taken out & shot!

By Xmr 777 | February, 2017Finished an undergraduate degree here it is a beautiful campus. Beautiful memories I will treasure forever.
By Laura Mills | February, 2017Hi which course did you study for as some of the reviews here on commerce are not at encouraging is the Co-op helpful in the course or an hindrance to passing out on time . How is the caliber of the professors..as for me is a big decision between couple of universities.
By AP | April, 2018Went here to participate in labs for middle school science trip. Great facility, great labs and students were thrilled with visit.
By Jamie Rice | February, 2017Zero transparency when I have inquired how many dogs, cats, rabbits, mice have been used for research this year. I am a tax payer, this university is funding by our taxes and I am declined an answer. Survivors of sexual assault at Dalhousie have until November 3 to call the university’s helpline. Dalhousie Student Union says it can only offer the sexual assault and harassment phone line service for the first eight weeks of classes after being offered inadequate funding from the university’s administration.
By Brian Halifax | February, 2017Very big campus with lots of potential for those seeking knowledge in a vast variety of fields. This means - access to a huge number of faculty that is always available for you and access to a very wide range of degrees and post-degree positions which can satisfy many walks of life.
By I B | February, 2017Commonly known as Dal, is a public research university in Nova Scotia, Canada, with three campuses in Halifax, and a fourth in Bible Hill. Dalhousie offers more than 4,000 courses and 180 degree programs in twelve undergraduate, graduate, and professional faculties.[3] The university is a member of the U15, a group of research-intensive universities in Canada
By dawn sloane | January, 2017Did my undergrad at Dalhousie, and I believe it is the best university in Canada when it comes to learning and student life. I visited U of Toronto, Queens, McMasters, Mt. Allison, MSVU and none of these campuses are as convenient as Dal. Some may argue that Toronto is right in downtown on subway, but the housing is very expensive and the environment is very crowded. I completed a two-years Master program at McGill. Montreal and McGill students are fascinating, but the school itself has some awful professors and crowded classrooms. When I did my undergrad in Halifax, Dalhousie-Kings College offered a wide variety of programs, gave out many bursaries and scholarships, and had a ton of societies which you can get involved. The professors and university administration were extremely friendly and approachable. On another note: if you are looking to go to Med school, go to Halifax, partake in the municipal election, and then apply to Dal Med. You will have a higher chance of entering as a NS resident. Since the quality of undergraduate education is unanimous in all universities, student life and experiences are what it really matters when choosing a university for undergraduate studies.
By Chan | March, 2016I finished the first year of my undergraduate degree at Dalhousie. I applied for a transfer (and was later accepted ≧◡≦) to UofT to complete the rest of my undergraduate degree. The classes and professors at Dalhousie are great, there are oppurtunities for research (among other things) if you take the time to look, and the surrounding city can be pretty enjoyable. I chose to transfer because of the poor student atmosphere and multiple instances of blatant racism on campus. It really takes away from the experience
By Magic Broom | February, 2016The largest and most academically diverse university in Atlantic Canada. Great partnership with other universities and industry area.
By Chris Zulinov | January, 2016I can't go into details why i absolutely dreaded during my stay at Dal for 2 years. It's not that I can't but I don't want to remember the horrible experiences and lack of support I got from the university. Also the person in charge with helping students on their schedule and advising is pretty awful because they say discouraging hurtful small comments to the students. Excuse my English for I am an ESL student.
By Celest1alBe1ng | January, 2015If you want to experience the worst 4 years of your life please attend Dalhousie, better yet enrol in the Commerce program. Even though my professors are great and all know me by name and allow me to call them by their first name it is the co-op program that makes this program hell!!! They give you no help at all and do not realistically portray the difficulty in getting a job and they allow for absolutely no flexibility at all!! You can end up spending years waiting to graduate because of their ridiculous requirements! do yourself a favor and go somewhere else, somewhere that doesn't cost as much either
