Student Testimonial
"I started my journey in college and transitioned smoothly to Ryerson’s School of Early Childhood Studies in 3rd year as a Direct-Entry student. I was surprised to discover that the classes were smaller than expected and the faculty took the time to really get to know their students. Faculty cared about their students’ success. The faculty are very supportive, and the courses and placements provided me with an immensely greater body of knowledge and experience. I highly recommend the program to anyone looking to advance in the field of ECE."
