Final comments
University of Ottawa is a cozy place. It is perfect to get started. Besides, if you come from Europe, as I do, it becomes your new home very quickly, due to the "disconnection" you feel from your home country. Be aware that Canada is 6 hours away from Europe: you will be living another life.

The official ranking of the university for the school of business administration is not very high if it's very important for you. Nevertheless, it was for me a way to discover another kind of teaching and studying.

Canada is a HUGE country that has to be visited from East to West.
Culture is real particular: a mix between the USA and some European countries, such as England...
You have to be confident and step forward to people; if you don't do so, you'll be by yourself!
