16 GEORGIANVIEW FALL 2021 DIGITAL EDITION MUSKOKA CAMPUS "My time at Georgian was an amazing experience, not only because I received excellent training and education," says Guylaine Bullen, a 2014 graduate of Georgian's Personal Support Worker program, and 2019 graduate of the Practical Nursing program, "but because of the close friendships and connections that I had the pleasure of making with fellow students and instructors." Guylaine completed both programs at Georgian's Muskoka campus, and first chose to study there because of proximity. Having grown up in Quebec, she moved to the Huntsville area when she was 14, and having a campus close to home ensured that postsecondary education was both accessible and affordable for her. In addition to location, Guylaine acknowledges that when considering where to pursue her postsecondary education, she was looking for a different kind of student experience. "There are so many schools where the class sizes are so big that you're just a number, and studying at the Muskoka Campus meant that I would be more than just another student," she says. "The smaller class sizes allowed me to get to know my fellow students and instructors, and the faculty were really committed to ensuring that we had the support that we needed to be successful in our programs. Ultimately, the reason I came back to Georgian for my second program, is because I had such a great experience the first time."
