Shake Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 It looks like there is very little info on this uni and virtually no posts about it so I wondered if any who attended or attends could give his/her insight on this university. I know it is beyond freezing for a very long time, pretty small and very isolated but besides all that, how is it?. I guess is the kind of place you either love or you hate and it is not for everybody... - Any info on the Civil Engineering dept? Are grad students there generally happy?. At any place you are always gonna find be people who are and people who aren't, you think is any different here? - A friend told me that undergrads rule the place, all they think about is partying and it is almost impossible to get away from them. I currently live in a building packed with them and they are all party animals, obnoxious brats, etc. No way I'm gonna move to the end of the world just to find myself with no chances of social interaction other than binge drinking and sleep deprivation. Is it really so or you think he was exaggerating? - I am international, female, single and in my mid 30s. Even if I love the place (love the outdoors and cold weather) will I want to kill myself for lack of social interaction? (not to mention the dating scene, although I will hopefully be too busy to date anyway). Precisely because of the isolation of the place maybe there's a tight community of grads? - How is the cost of living up there?. I have the feeling that housing is a challenge (especially if you do not want to live close to undergrads) and It looks like housing options are scarce. Comments? - Can you live without a car (international student)? and without a snowmobile? - Do you at least get 3-4 months of decent weather? Thank you for your help!
