Waterloo is like the IIT of India or the MIT of USA. It has the largest computer science/Math faculty in the world. The competition is extremely fierce and Waterloo produces one of the finest computer scientist in North America.
Proof? Bill Gates visited Waterloo twice insisting students to come and take up positions @ Microsoft. Google has opened up a new software division in Waterloo technology park and RIM(black berry) is just outside Waterloo.
Google last year hired more students from University of Waterloo than any other university. University of Waterloo has the largest co-op system in the world.
Now for Graduate studies, I will recommend University of Toronto because they have more money for research. But Waterloo is equally good. I agree most Americans are not aware about Waterloo, may be they are ignorant?
But yeh, congratulations on both super admits.
