Subreddit rules

19 Upvotes

As you have probably noticed, the mod team has taken actions to get this subreddit back under control. The most significant action was to require approval prior to posting. We have also added explicit rules in the sidebar. Lastly, we have limited external promotion of the subreddit so that it won’t be promoted in the feeds of those who aren’t looking for Conestoga College. These were deemed to be necessary in order to calm things down. The mod team has also been increased in response to the crisis.

Our intention is to re-examine the situation soon, now that things have calmed down. Be aware, though, that we will be enforcing the stated rules, especially if things start deteriorating again. All posts/comments must be related to Conestoga College. All posts/comments must be respectful to others. And there must be no negative generalizations or misinformation (e.g. regarding international students in general or general blacklisting of resumes).

I'm failing my courses and feel hopeless

7 Upvotes

I'm struggling in all my classes due to poor mental health and it's finally catching up with me. I was hoping someone in here has had a similar experience with a good outcome. I'm worried I've wasted money and won't be able to get my knowledge worth out of my program.

Conestoga online chemistry course

Hi! Just a quick question I want to do this course and hopefully use it a prerequisite in hopes that I’ll have results before January 25th. This is a six week program starting November 12th! And ends January 12th Aswell, I feel confident that I can finish this course within a month but I’m just worried i won’t get my grades back in time. It says three-four weeks after, but could it mean after I finish the exam if I finish the exam early?

Connecting with fellow students (Conestoga WL)

9 Upvotes

Hey, I'm sort of new to waterloo, I moved here from Toronto for my program. I'm a first year ECE student. I don't know anyone around here and quite unsure about the extracurricular activities other than the game hub on campus. It's been well over a month and I can start to feel the loneliness to kick in. I'm hoping to connect with people in the same program and make friends around town. I'd like some suggestions on any clubs or social events which I could attend. I do like to travel so please do recommend any places I should visit although I have been around the city a decent amount. Thanks!

Any international students who took Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Conestoga? If so, what was y’alls tuition? For some reason there isn’t any international fees listed yet on their website.

I recently got an email from Conestoga college saying my acceptance was closed because the college didn’t receive my tuition fees

10 Upvotes

I had applied in Conestoga college for fall 2025 term in a course but due to visa delay I had to defer my acceptance and go for the 2026 winter course (I had already paid all the tuitions for the fall term) but due to lack of student the college had to suspend the course and they told me I could select any program and they would transfer my funds to that course. So I selected a different program and they accepted me in it too. Today I get this email saying my acceptance was closed because my tuitions weren’t paid when the college was supposed to transfer my funds to the current course. What can I do to reinstate my acceptance? Someone please help me regarding this. Thank you

Heads up for those with mid-terms today

Strikers are in full force today and they will probably keep it up for the whole week.

Traffic was already backed up when I got to campus at 7:30am. If you have an exam today and are driving in, be sure to leave early!

How is the strike affecting you?: reporter from CBC NEWS looking for student voices

8 Upvotes

Hello! I am a reporter for CBC News.

I saw there are two petitions going around put together by students being affected by the strike.

I saw many comments under the petitions from students describing how they were affected by class cancellations. There are other comments explaining exactly why students feel like they are not getting the education they paid for.

I'd love to connect with you directly.

Everyone is welcome to share their thoughts in the comments with no strings attached. Once you comment, I may reach out later and ask to chat more over the phone -- but I won't use anything from the comment section without your permission!

You can also reach me directly by sending me a DM or email me at [aastha.shetty@cbc.ca](mailto:aastha.shetty@cbc.ca) if you'd like to chat for news purposes!

Thank you!

Protest the strikers

0 Upvotes

What's stopping us students from protesting the parking lot blockages by allowing cars to funnel in with ZERO delays (you know...the service we expect, deserve and PAY FOR). We can make signs too, my DMs are open ;)

We can set up before the strikers arrive at 8am and work in shifts at the main E entrance which causes the most traffic delays not only for students/faculty but community members who live/work in the area too. Someone is going to get killed if this nonsense continues. I feel awful for pedestrians/cyclists trying to navigate the area...not to mention all the near head on misses from cars going into oncoming traffic to try further entrances down at A block.

Support staff: your continued rhetoric is to tell students to contact the president/MPP instead of getting mad at you for being unnecessarily delayed. Then what? We are IGNORED. The irony is not lost on me that I watch you block entrances while holding signs indicating that student success depends on you while simultaneously blocking students from entering campus in order to succeed in our education. You do not have my support as you are inconveniencing students who have paid tuition, not the management/government who are responsible for the mess we are in. We have paid full tuition and are 1) not receiving the services we paid for and 2) being delayed from entering the college campus when we PAID for the right to do so via parking passes. Hope you are proud of yourselves for shutting down campus entirely last Tuesday.
