Anonymous asked: I got accepted at Woodsworth college... It pisses me off... I did not want to be in that college. I wanted to either be in Victoria, Trinity or University. Is it going to change much for my campus life?


Answer:

Will you be living on campus? It may affect the people you hand out with if you’re living on the campus of your college but otherwise, if you’re a commuter or living off campus, then no

Anonymous asked: What is the Pre- Med course and when is an undergraduate allowed to apply for this?


Answer:

I have no idea what you’re talking about. UofT doesn’t offer a pre-med program. I believe there is a dentistry program though

Anonymous asked: Hey! :) I was wondering if it possible to completely change my intended course/major in the first year? If yes, then when are these changes to be declared? Thank you! :DDDDDDD


Answer:

well in first year you haven’t declared anything. You don’t declare until after your first year (that’s if you have enough credits). You also have to know that many majors require certain classes to be taken and certain grades to be admitted into them. So look into all that in the Calendar. If you haven’t fulfilled the req’s for your major, you might have to do it after your second year

Anonymous asked: Hi, For the residence guarantee do you need to be a first degree applicant? I already have a degree so does that mean that I won't have a residence guarantee?


Answer:

i think that might be true, because priority is given to first years and then students without degrees. if there’s room, they’ll put you in, otherwise - it’s by chance. You may have to ask the residence coordinator, but this is true in my experience

Anonymous asked: Montreal or Toronto? I am from Montreal, should I move to Toronto to go to University of Toronto in your opinion?


Answer:

I haven’t been to Montreal so I can’t say. 

I’ve heard people like Montreal better and some like Toronto better. 

But since you’re from Montreal, I’d say it would good to get out of there and go to Toronto. The legal age is 19, so that is a bummer if you’re younger than that. 

Toronto is pretty great. Whether it’s better than Montreal or not, I can’t attest to that. But I definitely recommend getting out of where you grew up in or your hometown and experience other places. 

Any thoughts on this?
