Student Testimonials
I’ve always had a passion for helping people in improving their health and it ignited my interest in pursuing a Bachelor of Commerce in Healthcare Management at Humber College. It would allow me to help people by working on the administrative side of the industry.
In 2021, I moved to Canada and the cold was a major challenge coming from a tropical country. Making friends was another challenge. Everything being online made it tough to build connections, leaving me feeling somewhat isolated. However, I found ways to adapt. For the weather, I mastered the art of layering clothes, which made the cold more bearable. As for making friends, I found solace in the online communities we created. These groups started out to connect and play games online but eventually, they led to in-person gatherings later.
I have worked with Solutions with Impact before and when I mentioned that I wanted to intern with them, they were happy to welcome me aboard. So, I can say it was more of networking. In my free time, I enjoy baking, writing poetry, and spending time with friends. These activities help me unwind and stay connected with the people I care about. My goal is to become a Healthcare Project Leader at Colliers.
As a transfer student, ONTransfer was an invaluable resource in helping me transfer credits and excel in my courses. The international student department played a crucial role, guiding me to the various services available on campus that helped me adjust and thrive in this new environment.

My program was right for me, and it was my opportunity to learn more – from web design to photography and videography. It has solidified what I had in mind initially, but now I go with more to give. Everyone has made me feel like a part of the community, and that’s been very encouraging.
