It sounds great in theory. If there’s an option to do 3 classes a semester for 3 semesters a year while working full time do it! It’s kind of what a cousin of mine did and he was instantly hired after his degree
I like your videos a lot bro :) It stands out from from classic or cliché engineering videos from other TH-cam channels where the content repeats itself. I can always relate to what you say. There is definitely other channels, but they are not as consistent or they do not put work in scripting , ideas and sharing information as much as you do mashallah❤🙌🙏
I know everyone has a different experience with the University of Waterloo but I’m glad I chose UW for their coop program and scholarships. I’m debt free so far and I hope to graduate debt free. I’m applying the same methods (coop, scholarships, OSAP).
@@TamerShaheen bro I'm shocked how much it cost you per term. my entire 4 year MENG aerospace that is 3 year undergrad and masters only cost me 14000 pounds. I graduated in 2016

Nice videos. I like how you talk about the cost of college/university. It seems like these day it is an afterthought when it comes to the cost of college/university. You don't want to have a dream become a nightmare.
If you are canadian and planning to study engineering away from home, it might be worth looking at going to quebec, as rent is cheap and university is basically free. It costs you about 2000$ per semester, but you get a 2500$ grant per semester just by studying engineering, computer science or other elligible programs. (Québec Perspective Scholarship)
Awesome video! Very helpful and informative for people. The eating out part is probably what kills your wallet the fastest. For me at least lol… but I’m doing 2 years of community college and will transfer next semester for my last 2 years of college. I expect to at most pull out only 35,000 dollars in student loans(for my last 2 years). I been working since 17 and I’m 23 now and want to fully focus on school and attend full time and have time for clubs and internships. Is that a good choice?
Internships/CO OPs if they pay you, is a 100% worth it. If your doing 8 hours a day of unpaid internship over the summer, then you might have obtained a really bad offer
It always amazes me looking at how much university costs in North America, here in Europe (Italy in my case) public university is basically almost free, depending on your financial situation, and even some private universities got very low fees (compared to north american), and even them scale on your financial situation. I've completed my bachelor last year and I think I paid something like one thousand euros total for these 3 years in the best Italian engineering university, but received much more in scholarships so that was not a problem at all (same with master now but with no fees at all). And in other countries here in Europe university is just free (of course only if you profitably pass exams).
compare that to going to UC system. Even as in state student, it would cost you $41000 per semester. No one would pay you that much to intern for 4 months. Consider yourself blessed that for. Canadian citizens in Waterloo, tuition and boarding is so inexpensive.
Budget to not buy a car even after you graduate, put the money into your student loans instead. I'm treating my second degree loan as a car payment this way I don't feel so bad for taking out a loan :)
It’s kinda weird that university is basically free in South Africa but Americans always talk about student debt. I literally don’t know a single person who has student debt

Tamer, do you mind sharing how you manage your projects and the tools you use to do your work? (At your job or personal projects) would be super helpful!
Hey Tamer, I'm also going to apply for Waterloo's Engineering program next year. Is there any other scholarship specific to Ontario/Waterloo that you applied for aside from OSAP and the Principal's Scholarship of Distinction that I should be aware of?
A huge one is the bursary application that you can find on Quest. Once waterloo sends out the tuition bill, you should see it under the financial aid tab.
Good information, but that internship structure is not going to work for my scenario. My living expenses are too high to make that little as a 25 year old prospective student. EDIT: 18 year old me thought that skipping school and going straight into the workforce was a great idea, and it's certainly worked out for me. Own a home on acreage, have a few cars, a few investment accounts. With that being said the idea of being blue collar my whole career sounds awful, hence why I'm a viewer.
@@TamerShaheen I'm still actively working, I'm an auto tech by trade. We'll leave it at my current employer is on your resume. Hope to get back into school soon, a local community college has a 2 year Engineering AS degree which transfers over to the local university should it work out. I'd like to follow the ME path.
@@TamerShaheen Well mainly just how actually working in the field will be, I already know about the courses because I went and checked at the uni I applied to Rochester. But I wanna understand what type of positions can I get into, can I join design maybe etc. Thanks For Replying!
When you said “International experience through a research abroad term” what did you mean? Does doing IB (INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE) fit that criteria?
Ya usually that's the case. Sometimes you can also ask your manager to finish your internship a week early or start a week late if you need an extra week off between terms.
you didn't talk about the youtube money. how much did you make off youtube and what percentage of your total yearly income does that represent? Takam from Cameroon
@@PatrickGaied I've heard that in unis you don't need very high end laptops, cause only a little computing power would be needed for the most commonly used software, as large projects that require a lot of computing power aren't commonly given, but it depends on the uni u go, i would say go for something with a discrete gpu (most commonly Nvidia's Line up, but don't go for the mx Nvidia lineup, they aren't that gud), take my advice with a grain of salt tho because im a student who is currently in my senior year of highschool, planning to go and do an undergraduate mechanical engineering course, which is very similar to Mechatronics.
He says a lot of info in a short amount of time, and I speed up the video. I think he should keep it the way he does it. I am sure he also adds some stuff that are not written. It's fine for me that way it is.
For sure, I'll try to be flowier. I just don't want to be too flowy and then have the video be well over 20 mins long. I try to keep it concise with all the important info.
Bro even showed us how to cook during these difficult times. King 😭
quick and simple haha
Awesome video, Tamer! It’s crazy how high student debts are nowadays ….. thanks for shedding light on this issue!

Brother, you are really helping others.
The sad truth is that you just can't financially supply yourself fully as an international student without a student debt or support from the parents.
that's true...I was lucky to have the privilege of being local. I had many friends who were international, so I can empathize with that.
International students pay like 3 times the amount lol

TLDR he went to school outside the USA
good video. the only things is that American universities cost about twice as much as that
Yeah, I heard, but I have many American friends who did community college for 2 years, then university for another 2 years to offset the price.

Everyone else: Your mom
can you make a video about up work for mechanical engineer please
hey tamer I've always had thus question. Wgat skills do I need to have to get internships? especially as a 1st or second year
When you said “International experience through a research abroad term” what did you mean? Does doing IB (INTERNATIONAL BACCALAUREATE) fit that criteria?
No, that's a different thing entirely unfortunately. You can probably find scholarships for that though too
Can you get 2 weeks off between a work term and a study term?
Ya usually that's the case. Sometimes you can also ask your manager to finish your internship a week early or start a week late if you need an extra week off between terms.
