What is Simon Fraser University known for?
Hi and thanks for your interest in Simon Fraser University in beautiful British Columbia, Canada.

As the top-rated comprehensive university in Canada in this year’s Maclean’s magazine ranking, SFU boasts many outstanding programs in the arts and sciences. It would help to know which area of study you’re most interested in, but we can tell you that a recent winner of SFU’s top entrance scholarship–a $32,000 eight-semester prize–passed up scholarships at Queen’s and McGill to study molecular biology and biochemistry at SFU.
