Since last year, Algonquin College has moved up seven spots and is now ranked #24 among all Canadian research colleges in terms of research dollars! With a 26.5% increase in research funding, the College continues to rank strongly in terms of number of partnerships and projects – taking #3 and #2 nationally.
In August 2003, the Woodroffe Campus Residence Complex opened, providing housing for 1,050 students. There is also an abundance of off-campus housing in the area. Most students commute from throughout the National Capital Region by Ottawa’s city transit, OC Transpo or by car. Full-time students have a transit pass included in their tuition fees to facilitate off-campus living and reduce the demand for parking on campus.
The school’s residence is located just a short walk away from Baseline Station where students can take route 95 or route 94 to take them to the downtown core. There is also a clustering of apartment buildings and rental townhouses near the College called Deerfield where many second year students live.
The Pembroke Campus has a housing registry.
Algonquin College has four international campuses through their international offshore partnerships:
- Manav Rachna International University (MRIU) – Faridabad, India
- Algonquin College (Orient Education Services Co) – Al-Naseem, Jahra, Kuwait
- Hotelski Educativni Centar (HEC) in Montenegro
- Jiangsu Maritime Institute (JMI) in Nanjing, China
