Columbia College has helped me achieve my initial goal of getting into UBC. Now I use what I have learned in Columbia College to help me get by in UBC (study techniques, time management). Columbia College has also helped me in a variety of ways such as preparing me for studies in UBC and knowing what works for me and what doesn’t when it comes to achieving my goals.
One of my favourite memories I have of Columbia College is being on the dragon boat team. We were a team of novice paddlers who ended up winning after countless practices and motivating each other to try our hardest. Also, Columbia College introduced me to a solid group of friends and a support system which definitely helped me excel and adjust to life here in Canada, most of whom I am still really close with.
