Reviews of Grande Prairie Regional College (University)

Pierre Desjardins

Stayed here for a summer co-op work term. Pretty great aside from the fact I had to leave and find a place to stay for two weeks. Also I cleaned the house to the best of my ability and still got charged 30$

Way better than High School :)

Robert Janes

One of the most amazing buildings I've seen. A community gem and a revered educational center. Can't wait to see all it will offer now that it's no longer a college - it has been upgraded to a polytechnic institution! ???? ❤️

Jeff Hanson

Great community, very well rounded education with opportunities to get involved and be a part of extra curricular activities. The college cared about my success as a student and as an individual.

While i didnt attend any school here, i lived in the dorms for the summer and the internet is Rediculously slow, i cant imagine how much it must suck for students the rest of the year. But the dorms are really well planned out , i found it a joy to live here.

Grande Prairie Regional College is a great place. I feel like I received an excellent education. A lot of the credit should go to the wonderful teachers and instructors. It truly is a wonderful place to get an education.

I have to say that when I transferred to the University of Alberta to complete the degree I started at Grande Prairie, I felt much better prepared than the other students who were starting from scratch at the University.

Access is limited

The counselors, academic advisers and the rest of the Student Development Department were very informed and really cared. They allowed us to learn, experiment (and sometimes fail) in a supportive environment

Mindy Garreck

Small classes for the most part, some passionate instructors, helpful head of department and the dean is caring as well. Lots of extra curricular activities and fitness classes to join, as well as free events for students.

Charity Montgomery

Grande Prairie helped me grow as an individual and as a team member. I learned so much and it really helped me transition from high school. There were so many extracurricular activities available to me which made it easier to meet new people as well.

You'll love GPRC! The class sizes are smaller and the instructors are very knowledgeable. Some of the best memories I have are from there.

I graduated the college in 1983, and what I loved about the college was the quality of instruction, the smaller class sizes, and the amazing support the teachers gave.

Chuck Greyson

Grande Prairie is the best place ever. It really made a difference in my life. The class size was crucial in helping me learn the best to my ability.

Mary Foust

I feel like I made a great decision choosing Grande Prairie Regional for college. The small class sizes really aided my learning, and I felt like I received special attention. The professors were excellent in all regards. Campus life was very exciting and fun with lots of activities to do all the time.

Roger Knight

Loved the smaller class sizes and the quality of the instructors. After I graduated from GPRC I went on to university and the professors at GPRC were just as good as the professors there.

Sandra Impey

In 1986, I returned to college after an 8 year hiatus; nervous as heck! I was enrolled in a "pre-professional" program with hopes of getting into to very competitive Rehab Medicine Faculty at the UofA the following year. I was a young, single mother and had no time to waste! Beginning my "back-to-school" experience in a smaller campus with small class sizes allowed for a more personalized education; where I was experiencing difficulty, the profs were available to assist. Attendance at the GPRC enabled me to achieve the success I needed to get right into the program of my choice.

Beatiful building wonderful teachers and staff adult learning at its best

Dustin Lawrence

I highly recommend the Business Administration Department in particular. Having attended GPRC gave me a wealth of opportunities because of the quality of education that I received.

Casey McLean

So far this year (2014) GPRC has been the worst year for disorganization, lack of accountability and unprofessionalism I've ever seen since starting at the college in 2008. Callege's are a business, they are there to make money, I understand that. But because local students have no other choice but to attend this facility if they want training gives you all the power to treat them as wish? I believe the "Student Centred" motto they are stating everywhere is not being practiced. However, I will say that in the passed years I have been satisfied. Overall though, the instruction received there has been very good, accessability of academic and extra-curricular resources has been great! Sadly they have just degraded as they have expanded at the main student services desk.

Love this place. The architecture is amazing, and the interior is also well-designed.. I love how they consistently keep up with technology. The programs here are also cute.

Casey Thompson

BEST college in Alberta!

Kirt Tiessen

I stayed in the fairview campus the class sizes were small the teachers were excellent but the lady who runs the dorms "rose" is rude and unreasonable! The checkout time was noon on the same day I had to write my government exam! This lady insisted I spend the night before the test packing rather than studying! I dont know how she even still has a job! she adds immense stress to the students at a critical time in the education that they paid dearly for! The dorm is a dump and the beds are the same ones they use at the peace river correctional facility!

kristina smith

Maureen the receptionist was rude,Inattentive and was not interested in helping me as she likes sitting and getting paid easily.I visited there to pick a course and she had no clue and told me to check online..

Jamie Hughes

Very conveniently located close to hotel. If you need to learn or renew an Enform certified course, this college is perfect for flying in and staying within walking distance to morning classes.

CJ Hora

I've learned so much these past few years at Grande Prairie Regional College. The faculty and students together helped shape my education. I am grateful for the opportunities Grande Prairie has presented me with.
