The UNBSJ administration is unprofessional and they do not care about their students or staff. Of course this place could be better however there is a lack of pride around the campus. Cliquey small town mentality and most students are from Saint John. I do not feel safe around the school and it does not attract bright students or staff. #ONLYHERE

It's a tiny campus, so if you're not in one of the few big programs (marine bio, business, nursing) you'll be very alone, with very few resources. They also end up with a lot of sub-par instructors because the school is so small and in kindof a dingy town (nobody wants to live there). Definitely can't see it being good for grad studies either.

This is a drive-in school, there are not many classes to choose from on this campus since it is so small. Honestly, if you are looking for a variety of classes I would go to the Fredericton campus instead. The register's office is a mess and no help will be given when needed. There are a handful of good teachers but they are few and far between.

Welcome to UNBSJ, where Fredricton gets everything and you get, meh? Some profs are terrific, while others are on the rate my racist prof site. Need help with something? Dont ask the school because the only thing they want to do is not help you! Also, do the security guards have first-aid? Cause I've seen nursing students save more students.

not a lot of chances if you are an international student

The school administration has little to no awareness or care about their students and are openly willing to say one on one they hire profs who can hardly speak the language and do not bother offering an English proficiency test because these instructors are unable to pass. (A professor is known to use google translate throughout most of her class)

It's like high school all over again. Very clicky. Profs are really what to help.
