Student Reviews
Representative reviews"Genuinely worthwhile"
I was sceptical before starting — now I'd recommend it to anyone. The best part: the opportunity to do independent research in the final year is a highlight. If I'm honest, the timetable has some awkward 9am / Friday afternoon slots. On the city — winters are harder than you think but the spring-summer payoff is worth it. Overall, if you're considering Performance Studies Certificate at Simon Fraser University, I'd say go for it.
"Genuinely worthwhile"
Coming here has changed how I think. The best part: the final show is a proper platform — industry people come to see it. If I'm honest, the timetable has some awkward 9am / Friday afternoon slots. On the city — work opportunities via co-op are excellent for international students. Overall, if you're considering Performance Studies Certificate at Simon Fraser University, I'd say go for it.
"Solid, with caveats"
Overall a solid programme but worth going in with open eyes. The best part: the studio culture is incredible — you learn as much from your peers as your tutors. If I'm honest, admin can be slow to respond, especially at start of term. On the city — winters are harder than you think but the spring-summer payoff is worth it. Overall, if you're considering Performance Studies Certificate at Simon Fraser University, I'd say go for it.
