“Going through the applied degree at Centennial, I always had a bit of doubt as to how well it stacked up
against programs at universities … I can now tell you with 100 percent confidence that not only is the
applied degree at Centennial up to par with programs at universities, but I feel [I am] more well-rounded
and better trained than the majority of students in [my] masters program,” says Brendan John Coffey, a
graduate of Centennial College’s Computer networking training who is now an international Masters of
Business Administration student in Australia. This type of testimonial shows how Centennial College stacks
up against university programs, which are more expensive in cost.
