My instructor is so humble and intelligent. She has a tons of experience in this field and she is always ready to help her students in every possible way.

The instructor for the SSW course had over 20 years of experience in the field and brings her real life experience into the classroom. I was more than prepared for the "real world" with the education and training I obtained at the school. I have been employed in my chosen field of work, since graduating last fall. If you are wavering, take the plunge!

First time visit to this University on Sunday, 6/22/25. Arrived at 11:00 AM. There were a few…read moreBasketball Camps going on at the Wade King Rec Center. We got to tour the fitness center, gymnasium and pool area. Then took a leisurely walk around the campus to see the different buildings - Fine Arts building, the Library, Residence Halls, Science Building, and the Viking Union. All were closed since it was a Sunday, but still enjoyed walking around to see the layout and creative structures and different building locations. The natural environment with views of the Cascades and hills full of trees across the ocean was very calming and peaceful.

CAUTION: Don't come here…read more This university changed a lot, seemingly for the worse. If something goes wrong, watch out for the caring front some professors put up. I fell for it and it costed me. I truly believed that when another student told my professor that I felt suicidal, that I would be helped. Instead my tuition was wasted. I was told to enroll in courses that had no site placement. Then when I asked my professor about the shared concern from my classmate regarding how I felt suicidal, she gaslighted me. She forgot that my classmate said I felt suicidal. Mind you, my classmate shared this information without my permission. We had a three hour meeting after class that I can't believe she forgot... I thought I'd be supported but instead I was ignored for the rest of the year due to the courses that did not exist. I was then suddenly removed from my program because I was told I was not ready for my final quarter. I would have been ready if I actually had learned what the missing courses failed to provide due to not existing at all. All of my classmates noticed how I was treated, but nothing was ever done to help me, because then the school year ended and everyone graduated. The program I was in had high suicide and mental health stats, which I learned after I graduated. In hindsight, the pressures of how challenging the program is was a huge source of stress, which was basically mocked at the front door, during orientation. Do not expect this university to actually care about you as a person. You only seem to matter if you can contribute financially, but otherwise, you're completely on your own. Other things happened too. I'm not sure why there weren't better actions in place. After my sudden program removal, I was actually preyed on by a student who took advantage of me and raped me. And if that wasn't enough insult to injury, I never used my college degree for anything because my credentials were incomplete and all my financial aid ran out, even though I had a full ride, which was all wasted and never reimbursed, when I wasn't provided courses. This was all extremely painful for me to go through and i would argue that I never deserved what happened to me. I hope that this isn't the standard for how this university treats students who feel suicidal. Before my classmate shared anything about suicide, no professors could tell. So I felt exposed and then discarded. This was so brutal and unexpected at the end of college. My life has not been the same since. There are better colleges that won't make you go through what I went through. WWU is a high risk and a gamble in my honest opinion. You don't get a nice college name in the end. Anywhere else is better. I hope this helps.

If someone had told a younger version of me that I would be #livingthedream at UFV.. I am not sure…read morewhat I would have said. The thing is, life moves fast, and although we all have dreams and goals.. sometimes we end up at somewhere like UFV. Now, I am not trying to trash on anyone who goes to UFV, it is an okay school, and I don't blame anyone for going there. It is a relatively affordable school, and it makes sense for so many people to go there; it makes sense for me to go there. However, at the same time, I would not try to claim that the University of The Fraser Valley is a great school. To be honest I kind of sort maybe hate it. The profs are pretty good, and the campus itself is not that bad, but if I were to be completely honest, the only thing that convinces me to go to school is wanting a better job when I am older. Okay, not really.. my main motivator for going to school is the UFV Timhortons located within building G. Shoutout to the Timmie's workers, they are the goats. Oh yeah, also the wifi/power goes down like everyday.. so I guess that's one way to procrastinate with a reason.

It's difficult to get through a degree when courses aren't always available or you're being waitlisted. This is especially apparent for their low budget CIS program! Highly recommend communications courses here though! The profs are all great and what they teach is useful for any real world career! Japanese Prof Joe Sunami is also highly under appreciated. He's a wonderful, patient teacher! Weeaboos please take his class seriously. He deserves better than you!

They often get to know you and are willing to help individually if needed. I also appreciate the mix of online and on campus classes the school provides. The online classes help add some flexibility to the hours spent on campus and help you work with a job and school at the same time. If you are thinking of Running Start or of just going after high school or going back to school later in life, this is a great opportunity right in your backyard. It is affordable and the level of education is well worth it. I highly recommend Skagit Valley College!
