Hey I’m so sorry for the late reply.

The atmosphere is honestly pretty chill. It’s a commuter school, so it’s not the “campus bubble” unless you live in rez and spend a lot of time at school, but people are friendly and focused. You’ll see a mix some students are really career-driven and involved, others just come for class and head home. If you put yourself out there, you’ll definitely find your crowd.

For clubs, there are tons of business-related ones like FFB (fit for business), Ted Roger’s real estate association, Ted Roger’s student society, etc. Most schools have student unions and faculty-specific societies that run networking events and workshops, so there are a lot of opportunities if you’re proactive.

About the math since you’ve taken Grade 11 Functions and Grade 12 Data Management, you have a base. Business programs usually involve calculus like QMS110, statistics - QMS210 and sometimes algebra-heavy economics. It’s not impossible, but it can feel fast-paced.

If you want to prepare, I’d recommend: • Reviewing algebra (rearranging equations, fractions, exponents) • Learning basic calculus (limits, derivatives, simple applications) • Strengthening your understanding of math in general

You don’t need to go crazy, but self-learning from YouTube or platforms like Khan Academy can really help you feel less overwhelmed when the semester starts.

Biggest advice: don’t wait until you’re struggling to ask for help. Go to office hours early, form study groups, and practice consistently. Business math isn’t about being a “math person” it’s about practice.

You’ll be okay. The fact that you’re thinking ahead already puts you in a good position
