From Dhaka to Waterloo: Farhana's Path Into Canada's Top Co-op Program

"I failed my first IELTS attempt and thought my Canada plans were over. My counsellor helped me build a 10-week study plan and I improved my band score by 1.5 in one retake."

Farhana secured a partial scholarship from Waterloo and is now in her second co-op work term at a Toronto fintech startup.

"The biggest help wasn't the paperwork — it was having someone tell me honestly which programs I was actually competitive for."
