University of Ottawa Ultimate Student Guide Part One
There are many academic resources online but it is hard to keep track of everything. It became my goal to create a central hub for the top resources from the best universities in Canada. I graduated from university and created the ultimate student guide for the University of Ottawa below.
I will also be creating a part two which will include information on financial support, career services, things to do in Ottawa and all the student deals. So stay tuned!
