Why? On the campus, there were almost only first year student, whereas I was in my penultimate year ! the cohabitation was sometimes fun but I'd rather be in a house/appartement close to the campus
Personal comments:
you get used to the sharing, we really don't know that in France, that's a good thing, but there were cleanliness issues and noise ! This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Type of housing: On campus
Arranged by: Host university
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why? On-campus residence is a must for first-timers at University of Ottawa. Once you've been there, though, you'd rather look for a more independent way of life -maybe moving in an apartment downtown with former Residence people from your floor!
Personal comments:
There is a serious shortage in housing on campus, so you should apply early for it, and insist! All shared facilities residences are pretty much the same, and you have easy access to laundry, café, security... Residence life is friendly and informal. That's where you'll probably meet your best friends. This review is the opinion of an iAgora member, and not of iAgora itself

Couldn't have asked for more.
Pretty good.
Could've been better, but didn't lessen the overall experience.
Disappointing.
