Reviews of Trebas Institute (University)

Jaime Andrés Giraldo Botero

My experience at Trebas (Campus Montreal) has been exceptional. This school has DLI number and allow students get PGWP. The teachers are truly invested in my education and gave me tools to grow as a learner. Adjustments are made as needed to meet the needs of the students. Small class sizes and leveled learning have enabled me to gain confidence in my learning abilities. Downtown location, part-time classes (3 days/week) bring me the opportunity to work and study at the same time. Such a multicultural cohort. Online classes have been a stunning experience for me. Well prepared, all information very relevant, and well organized. The administration is open-minded and thinks outside the box to make Trebas a successful educational experience for the students. Trebas is committed to the students learning. They teach value lessons, communication, and technical skills. Real-life examples are also present in their activities. Trebas education has been a very positive experience for me. 100% recommended.

Waste of time and money. This school is a real scam.

The new campus, the teachers, the administrative people, all Trebas community are amazing!!! The cost and the benefits for international students are the best in Montreal

Absolutely rip off, don't trust this institute

My friends told me that I did not need a diploma to find a job as a sound tech. All I can say is that I'm happy to have studied at Trebas because, in addition to having a good education, I also had great support finding a job.

Having worked in the industry for 10+ years, This school is misleading and unethical in its practice and will scam you out of your money. Stay away !

As a foreign student, I think this school is worth it. I was very well received by the staff and my classmates facilitated my integration

I never thought I'd like a music theory class so much. This course is very useful when I want to write songs. Now I have a better understanding of the creative process. On the other hand, I would have replaced some courses by additional theory or harmony courses.

The College is very well located, the teachers are experienced and active in the job market. Great programs eligible for PGWP !!

I came from the United States for the music business program. A similar course at home is really too expensive compared to Trebas. I sure had to adapt myself to different copyright law, etc, but in reality, it was not as difficult as I first thought. I am now a full time Tour Manager and I apply what I learned on a daily basis.

If you are considering going to this school DONT DO IT, they hype it up just to get your money. They do not care or try to help in any shape or form. They are a private organization that needs money so they leech off of naive people. Trust me when I say don't waste your time and money. I know from experience

Harry Leo

Wow! I will enroll in this school in a few weeks. I am so excited!

It’s really interesting to learn from teachers who really work in the industry. I’m learning the right techniques.

Thoroughly enjoyed my year at Trebas! The teachers are industry professionals, they clearly know what they are talking about. The institute's support staff is available, helpful and all-in-all incredible. As long as you put in the efforts, show up to your classes, do the work, show some interest and take any and all opportunities that are presented your way, it's not difficult to succeed at Trebas, and in your career afterwards. It's a private institute, therefore very pricey, but worth every penny.

The recording studio is really cool. I like this place.

I wouldn’t recommend this to any immigrant, pascal was racist and kept mocking my family name then calling to say I can’t afford the school when I haven’t finished my online inscription

Gianpaolo Marcogliese

Great school! Great teachers! Very fun experience, wish I could do it again! I'm where I am today because of the people I've met during my time at Trebas and that kind of gift is something money can't buy. Strongly recommend if you're passionate and dedicated and willing to put in hard work.

(Translated) I am quite satisfied with my studies. I had a superb experience at this school. The teachers put my heart into it and taught me very useful things. The only catch was that I would have liked the program to be longer. (Original) Je suis pas mal satisfait de mes études. J'ai eu une superbe expérience a cette école. Les profs y ont mis du coeur et m'ont enseigné des trucs fort utiles. Le seul hic s'est que j'aurais aimé que le programme soit plus long.

*Graduate of the Sound Design program from the US.* It has taken me the most soul-crushing year and a half of my life to write this. I try not to live with regrets, but I can say without hesitation, that I regret the decision to attend this program. First, if you do not speak French, don't consider coming to Quebec and especially not to this program. You won't make it. You will leave this program with no real experience or clue what you are doing. As a sound design student, you are not allowed to use the recording studio. Yes, you sit behind the instructor and watch. The facilities are run down and antiquated. My most rewarding experience here was when an instructor hired a cello player to play and record music we wrote...with his own money. With the amount of money this "school" charges, you would think this would be something they would cover. Above all, the biggest failure to come from this place is its inability to support students post-graduation and in employment. I was the only student from my program to attend all of the career advisor's seminars. My grandmother gives better career advice. So, I made an appointment to discuss internships and making connections and I was handed a listings magazine and was told to cold call companies. I called and called, knocked on countless doors, was laughed at, yelled at, and talked down to. Not even considered to volunteer my time and learn or do an internship. Not one of my classmates is working in the field. So if you feel like plunging your self-esteem down the toilet and settling into a major existential life-crisis, this is a good choice for you. Otherwise, save your money and consider other programs. Ask about their career placement/services. Explore connections any program has in the industry. Make practical decisions.

As one of the former Music Administration program, I must say I feel I spent A LOT of money on information I could have gotten otherwise, if I knew where to look. I learnt some useful stuff, although instructors are mediocre for the most part, often having a qualification in a field secondary to teaching - it's like saying having some knowledge about a subject and teaching it is all the same! They also seem to be all infected with the "get that cash" mentality, as in they will promise you a sea of help and support after graduation, but it actually resumes to a few volunteer and low paid jobs the career lady sends every now and then. Looking back at the time it will take me to pay 15k of gouvernment loan, even with low interest, and the chances I have it will produce something in a reasonable time frame, I would definitely reconsider the choice I made when I enrolled. Another bad taste experience was when I tried to stay in touch and develop some projects with former teachers and colleagues, all of whom seem to be way too important to lower themselves to a "no name" emerging artist, even one with great potential, if I was to believe what they told me... of course, with a few (very) minor exceptions, to confirm the rule! Were the less than fingers from one hand exceptional people I met in there worth 15k? Still to be considered...

I studied at the Montreal Campus, in sound recording and live sound in 2004. The experience was fun but before spending 15,000$ for this course one thing that future student must understand. This institute will not help you get a job or support you post grad. The school seems more interested in your money, you are in charge of your own networking and pretty much my entire class never had a career in the music industry. 1 to 3% is the placement rate.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY! THIS IS A PRIVATE SCHOOL THAT ONLY CARES ABOUT MAKING THE MOST MONEY POSSIBLE. STAY AWAY. IF YOU DONT, YOU'LL REGRET IT BIG TIME. INSTEAD OF WASTING $12,000 YOU CAN LEARN LITTERALLY EVERYTHING THEY TEACH YOU (AND MORE ) ON GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE FOR FREE.

Great location, friendly staff, hands on training and career services! The programs are suitable for students who are ambitious and keen to grow!
