<p>UWaterloo-pls help
Hey guys i needed your help on deciding if i should really go with uni of waterloo.
I intend to do MBA after this and have offer for soft. Engineering prog of waterloo.
Its said their computer grads are very popular amongst apple and msoft. </p>
<p>Do u think waterloo would be a good choice. I have offers from manchester and edinburgh too. I havent applied to us schools so i can go for them also.
Waterloo has the largest co-op prog so i will get a lot of managing experience and skill.
So as an HBS prospectivestudent will i be equally competetent to an ivy student.
Will waterloo be equally competitive to a lower ivy school in computer science.</p>
<p>I’m not too familiar with Manchester and Edinburgh, but I do know that Waterloo has a top-notch software engineering (and other types of engineering/math) program. I would say that it’s the best in Canada, and comparable to many of the top tier schools in the US. I’m not too sure about Apple, but I do know that Microsoft recruits heavily from Waterloo. Anecdotally, a few years ago, 5 or so students went to Waterloo CS from my school, and 2 of them are now at Microsoft (their starting salaries were 6-figures!). I’m not really sure how useful that is if you want to go to HBS though…</p>
<p>May I ask what grade you’re in? Because you mention that you can still go for US schools…but since you got offers already, shouldn’t you be a senior?</p>
