Trying to get help and information and Lori at the financial aid office is exceptionally rude. Clearly just wanted to end the appointment to do something else. Completely disinterested and awful. So many awkward silences, made me feel like I was doing something wrong by taking up her time.
This is my entire future I'm trying to plan. I wanted help. I got someone blowing my questions off and not caring to be even a little polite and fake that they want to be there answering my questions.
If you book with a financial advisor, choose someone else. I wish I had.

This five star review is for Mr. Whitehead the high school upgrading program chair and Shelley the LPN program advisor. I’m an alumni of BVC and I decided to go back to school after a long time. The admission team was not helpful at all. I struggled finding an answer for my questions for days. They made me take different placement exams even though, I finished some courses there already. The tuition fees are higher than the other colleges. After I attended the open house, I was fortunate to get a chance to speak with Mr. Whitehead and Shelley and I got all the help and support I needed. They both made everything so clear and easy to understand. Shelley was so kind and supportive. She explained how I should start with my school journey. Mr. Whitehead was very responsive to my emails and requests. I’m hoping for the best for my new journey back at BVC☺️

I understand that everyone shares their own experiences and it isn't the same every time but here is mine 🙂

I have taken an online course and I'm pretty happy how it went although one feedback is to please make test results available after the student finishes so they can learn what they need to study better. Staff were always quick to reply to my emails. Even my books came pretty fast in the mail. I might have said something that I really didn't mean in one email (I blame pregnancy hormones and apologize for that haa 😅) but none the less I am happy to have been accepted into the program and completed it. Teachers vary from their methods and how involved they are? But Celine Provost was the best 🙂

Thank you Bow Valley College.

By far the worst online schooling experience I have ever had, absolutely no support or help from anyone, had a professor straight up ignore ALL my emails for 2 semesters. This school just wants your money since they offer online, but cancelled all my classes on my and threw me into in person class to read information, no teaching actually provided for me just the information. This school is a money grab, watch yourself because they will screw you any chance they can get. Also you want me to do work experience over Christmas break? no way

Pay 8500 for tuition fee then pay 100-150$ for individual subjects to do the assignments after that they could fail you too nice pay hefty amount of fee then pay more then. Instructors are too hard on students

DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL. It seems cheap and short, but if you’re going to go to school and take out loans- DONT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY HERE. Since I started I've learned the offices do not actually care about their students. They just pass students off to one another. It’s like a never ending cycle. It’s also right next to the largest homeless shelter in the country, which you’ll only learn once being enrolled here. Some of the teachers were really nice and flexible with their deadlines. I’ve been enrolled for one term here and I’m transferring to U of C. I live on my own, my parents don’t help me, I don’t have time to waste but the school loves wasting time and making you jump through hoops to get answers. It’s NOT worth it, you’re better off at MRU or U of C. Would not recommend.
