Excerpt from a letter by an appreciative former
Academic Studies student:

Dear Dr. Gelin:

Iam uriting to thank you for the letter that you sent in
June advising me that I had been placed on the Dean’s
list. You don’t know how good this made me feel!

I recently applied to Simon Fraser University for
admission to their progressive and “elite” School for the
Engineering Sciences. There were over 2,000 applications
for the 55 spots available, and I was ecstatic to learn that
I was one of the 55 applicants chosen.

The quality of instruction and the “extra mile”
involvement that my instructors at Capilano gave me
excited my mind and challenged me to achieve the
highest level of excellence that Iam capable of and then
some!

Thank you and these instructors for giving me the
support and confidence to feel good about my future
opportunities.

Sincerely, a firm believer in the Capilano College
Education system, Andrew J. Barron.
