Heard in the Hall
Why Concordia ?
“I know that Concordia Fine Arts has a reputation for itself. I’ve personally looked into the film production program and I’ve been impressed by the work that students have done. I know it’s pretty selective because of the quality of the program. I tried it out, I didn’t think I was going to get in—but they are looking for people with new ideas [and] that personally appeals to me.”

B.F.A. in Film Production
“Concordia rocks, man! Concordia rocks more […] at partying. McGill sucks, they don’t have enough labs, and they are all, like, technical. They’re uptight! They have sticks up their asses.”
—Joanne Bouchard

“I went to a private CEGEP and [as] the faculty of Political Science expanded at Concordia, I was invited to come to school. The school is amazing, I’m happy with my choice.”

“I know McGill, my Dad works for McGill. But I know at Concordia there are a lot more projects. I prefer schools that are on the upturn, and I felt like Concordia is one of those schools trying to make a name for itself, especially internationally. It’s important […] not only participate [at school], but to make them better and help the school rise because it makes your education much better.”

“My mom and my dad came and did their studies here. Then my mom switched to Université de Montréal, but told me that out of both schools this was the best one. It had a wider range of classes and topics. I’ve heard that the school is packed with students.”
