I'm at SFU (Comp Sci) right now. I couldn't get in straight from high school and went to BCIT for 2 years.

I got the diploma at BCIT and my parents pushed me to pursue a degree and so I applied to SFU. I'm pretty much just doing the WQB stuff at SFU and imo my "degree" feels like it isn't really a "degree" in computer science. Mostly all of my courses from BCIT were credited as level 300/400 courses.

If you know what you want to do for your career I would highly suggest trying BCIT. You'll get all the necessary education and hands on experience that University/College doesn't give you. From my experience, it was a lot of work to get through BCIT since it was about 33 hours of just school a week but in the end it was worth it. I could've gotten a job right away but my parents wanted me to get a degree so I'm just doing freelancing work right now while at SFU.

Good luck!
