Meet Alex, a curious high school senior from a small town in Ontario who's passionate about history and education. Often found with their nose buried in research about Canadian universities, Alex has a knack for discovering lesser-known institutions. While preparing for university applications, they stumbled across the University of Waterloo and, in a humorous moment of confusion, mistook it for "Upper Canada University"—a fictional name conjured from their love of historical context. Alex is determined to broaden their horizons and wants to find the perfect school to foster their love for learning and innovation.
