The VIA rail- Canada's major train line gives student's a reduced rate of up to 40% with an STA card. If your visa allows it and you can manage it, work where possible it gives you an added opportunity to meet new people!

There are a lot of nice pubs on campus site. The other university in town, the University of waterloo, is somewhat bigger than WLU and thus you shouldn't miss to go to their pubs as well. Best places to go (since they have also fair prices) are close to both campus sites.
Si j'y retournais je choisirais: Off-campus residence
Pourquoi?
It is good to be off-campus because you are more mixed with the canadian people and you don't have to live with first year students. The residence is a good choice because it has a convivial atmosphere.

On campus, the housing seems pretty good though I have never lived there. the problem is that there are too many international students and first years there.
Food was somewhat more expensive especially if you ate other stuff than fast food. Within the same city calling someone was pretty cheap / almost for free. Travelling results in larger expenditures than in Germany since the distances you travel are in no relation of what we are used to. However, national flights therefore are less expensive than in Germany.

The system of tuition fees at the university seemed pretty complex. Until now I don't have a clue how they calculate it. I had to spend more on fees than I expected. Also books required for class are quite expensive. However there is good access to second hand books.
