Student Testimonials

Read about the experiences of past international students.

  1. Eye-opening, warm and welcoming, and life-changing are words that come to mind when I think of my experience at Cambrian. As an international student, I had the opportunity to meet individuals from various cultures and learn to respect, understand, and communicate with them.

    Jessica, Philippines - Developmental Services Worker Program
  2. I always tell my friends back home that Cambrian College is one of the best and they should apply there. Three of my pals were recently offered an admission letter to study there. That’s how much I love the college. It inspired me!

    Lionella, Africa – International Business Management
  3. It goes without saying that the skills attained from the program are hugely rewarding and give me a competitive edge in job-seeking after graduation. I hope that I can leverage these skills to support the businesses in Sudbury and always keep the spirit of continuous learning.
