A university situated in Southern Ontario, it is acclaimed for its prestigious Engineering and Math programs.

It is also notorious in the poker world as a "Poker Factory", producing many of the top players in the WSOp, like Nenad Medic, Michael McDonald, Steve Black, Will Ma etc.
I hear your going to the University of Waterloo for Engineering! If that doesnt work out you can just pick up poker, there is something in the water there.

If you ain't in University of Waterloo (UW) for engineering or some other nerdy stuff like that, you're misusing your money and time, but not necessarily wasting it. UW will also bore you to death. It's a pit where only nerds thrive. That is the price UW is paying to making it to the top in such a short time (less than 60 years).

The accolades in ranking for UW speak for themselves:

-> 2012 Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) ranking: UW ranked 2nd in Canada and 43rd in the world (for the field of engineering, technology and computer sciences)

-> 2012 Business Insider rankings: UW ranked 1st in Canada and 29th in the world (in the list of top engineering schools)

-> 2013-2014 Times Higher Education rankings: UW ranked 4th in Canada and 67th in the world (for the field of technology and engineering)

-> 2013 QS World University rankings: UW ranked 2nd in Canada and 46th in the world (for the field of engineering)

-> 2013 QS World University rankings: UW ranked 2nd in Canada and 27th in the world (in the specific field of computer science and information systems)
Not even 60 years old and university of waterloo is already kicking ass!!

ENOUGH SAID!!!

Home of one of the greatest and invigorating computer/electrical engineering programs in Canada and quite possibly the world, thanks in large part to Professor James Barby dedication and work.
I work at Microsoft and I am from the University of Waterloo

The birthplace of the entire concept of kinesiology. Also, it's the only kinesiology program worth attending, save for the one at McMaster University.
Student 1: Hey, I got into kinesiology at York.
Student 2: What are you going to do, work as a gym teacher? University of Waterloo is where it's at!

The only good university for civil engineering in all of North America. Though strong in other fields of engineering as well as account, math and science; the University of Waterloo's civil engineers are the most dangerous bunch.
I goto the Univesity of Waterloo, so I am assured a bright future

A self claimed prestigious university located in Ontario, Canada. Students graduated from UW could only become high school teachers, and they are taught the fact that they've attended the best university in North America. This is a viscious cycle because these high school teachers in turn brainwash teenagers for four years, and convice them to attend to UW, which is basically how the university stays in business. This method of attaining applications is a remarkable achievement, because UW has a history of merely 50 years and has already made itself the best university in Canada. Ironically, it achieved nothing academic.
Things like war in Iraq, anal sex procreation, urbandictionary.com and paris hilton are good examples of university of waterloo
