OT Colleges :)

Actually, i'm in Kin at Western so i'd recommend it! ahah, but out of Waterloo and Queens.. well we do have a big rivalry with Queens ;)! Both are actually great schools, but after living in the Waterloo region i kinda wanted out. Queens is a great school all together - there's a rivalry for a reason! But Waterloo had the first ever Kin program i believe?
Cheerleading wise - Western has one of the strongest University cheerleading programs, and there are all star cheer teams near all universities:
Waterloo is decently close to Cheersport Sharks (who i fully recommend :rolleyes:)
Queens is in Kingston where there (i believe, cause it used to be there) Kingston Elite
And By Western there is PCG Vipers :)

Western was actually my third choice! But then my mum didn't want me applying to all those schools so I was forced to narrow it down haha. I was considering doing Waterloo/Sharks, but I'm not sure how the transportation/schedule/convenience issues would work, so now I'm considering cheering for university. From what I've gathered, school cheerleading in the east is actually quite competitive- true or false?

very true, the Dec 3-4th is PCA college competition, so i'm sure videos will be put up and you can see the options, i know Queens is and i believe Waterloo is in the large coed, so they are very competitive! I don't really follow college cheerleading much but i'm pretty sure Queens has a very strong team! I've never seen Waterloo though, so i couldn't personally tell you about that.
And Sharks also just got a new gym, i believe it is closer to Kitchener than the other gyms, so that might make transportation easier because its pretty much just down the highway!

Accepted to local technical college whadduuupp?!! I wish I was as smart as y'all. :eek:

I think going to a technical college is a really smart idea!! When you graduate, you'll be trained with job skills and most likely have a job. Graduating from a regular four year college does not guarantee employment and is not the right choice for everyone. Congratulations on your acceptance!!

Hahah thank you! :D I'll probably transfer to a University after I get all the first-year classes out of the way--saves a lot of money!

I feel ya! My little sister has gotten into Alabama and Georgia Southern so far :)

My little sister (she's a junior) is applying to Georgia Southern next year (and going there assuming she is accepted). I loved their campus. Auburn is her 2nd choice...but shes not too crazy about the cost or Alabama.

That's awesome! Ya Alabama is ridiculously expensive since we are out of state. She is waiting to hear back from a few more schools but most likely will be attending GA Southern :)

So jealous everyone is getting acceptance letters already! I just want to know if I got in anywhere!

waterloo has had an amazing cheerleading team i feel in love with them when i was in my first year of cheer, but western def has a better university program :)

if all else fails go for colour choices purple and white which look gorgeous
and then yellow and black and queens no idea what their colours are but regardless haha

and on the topic of queens it is one of canada's EXTREMELY prestigious school and focus A TON on academics

Yeah I was looking at academic averages and I don't think I'm doing well enough in chem 12 to get in, so I've actually narrowed it down to Waterloo and western! Does western have a reputably competitive team?

Western's team is extremely competitive, and even before i decided on Western (and remember i don't follow college cheerleading!) i had heard about them! They've actually won at Cheersport the past couple of years as well!
