 " Wonderful school with professors who care. If you enjoy a small campus then this is perfect as almost all the buildings are connected. I never joined any extracurricular groups but there were quite a few societies available. I graduated with good marks and a solid network made of my peers and professors. "

 " I love this school because of its small campus and small class sizes. It has a good community and my professors have all been amazing. You will never be late getting from one class to another because all of the classes are on one campus! The library is pretty good and has quiet floors for studying. The university is close to downtown Halifax so it's easy to get around with a lot of good bus routes. "

 " There are many things I like about SMU including the community feel and the support at student services. There are many great profs, classes, and opportunities.  
I am a PhD student and I had to deal with bullying/harassment/discrimination which was terrifying; it involved my two former supervisors and one of the secretaries spreading rumours, discouraging people from working with me, and trying to get me in trouble (they tried to drum up complaints, and when they couldn't get them, made them up). I used to live under security cameras and keep records of witnesses in order to protect myself. A part-time academic from my department (Psych) went on hunger strike in 2018 outside the university to try to raise awareness for the issue. I was discouraged from reporting it and seeking redress, and I had no help from the conflict resolution officer, who actually ganged up and became a perpetrator. It was horrible, and if you're considering graduate studies please take the time to learn about academic mobbing. "

 " I've enjoyed my time at SMU. I always felt that there were resources available to help me figure out my path and thrive is classwork. The campus is centrally located and easy to access, although parking can be a challenge. "

 " I went to SMU for my undergraduate and my Masters degree. 
From my experience, SMU is close knit, and there are many options for pursing degrees. The university is known for being a business school, but within the recent years, the science program has really been catching attention with research and well known researchers. The Psychology undergraduates are very well trained. From my experience with many other Canadian psychology honours students, and even experience with graduate students in Europe, SMU students are well trained and knowledgable.
I would recommend anyone to this school, because its accepting to all students. "
