“ I transferred to Glendon from one of the big
university campuses in Toronto in part because
that big impersonal environment wasn’t meant
for me. I needed a personal approach within my
academics, and that’s exactly what Glendon is
about! I was happy and relieved I had finally
found my place - it feels like home.”
– Anna Arzumanova

“
When I came to Canada as an international student, at first everything was very
intimidating. The college I started at when I first arrived was huge and there were
around 100 to 200 students in all my classes. It was very hard to make friends and
the professors were more focused on delivering their lectures rather than their
students. When I transferred to Glendon, however, the small class sizes allowed me
to build a connection with my professors. They knew my academic achievements
and were always ready to help. It was easier to make friends and I really felt like
I was part of a community!”
