    Damn Government.

    I want to live either on residence or find an apartment downtown for the next school year but my estimated OSAP funding isn’t enough for living expenses in Toronto. Is there anywhere else I could turn to? Grants, scholarships etc. I really don’t want to commute again this year since it takes about 1.5 hours each way. Thanks.

    “Parents Just Don’t Understand.” – Will Smith

    Hi, i’ll be coming to UofT from out of town and my parents have been pressuring me about money, loans, etc. i know things change every year, but i’m wondering if some of the residences are more “thrifty” or less expensive than others?

    i’ve gotten my ‘residence reply form’ for New College, and noticed that their res fees have gone up since last year. would it be a possibility for me to switch to a residence that’s a bit cheaper, or is it too late now? Thanks!

    housing WHOAHs…

    Hi, I got accepted into Woodsworth for life sciences but they sent me off to 89 chestnut for res. & it’s a bit pricey for me. I might as well commute to campus. Are there any possible ways to change college or residence before it’s too late?
    i received an offer from u of t a few weeks ago, but i am NOT happy with my college placement. i really want to get into victoria college, and my average is 91 (i ranked vic as #2–stupid). can someone pleaasssee tell me how i can get in. i’m desperate!! this is really important to me, as i will be living in residence next year, and i really like victoria’s environment.
    I have just been accepted into U of T for commerce at St. George for Fall 2007.
    I have applied to New College. But now I really dont want to go there. Is it possible to switch to Woodsworth college? Since I think that it would be so much better for me since I’m going into commerce, and prefer apartment style residences. (not dorms)

    I need to move out next year.
    I need to find a decent apartment near campus.
    Where can I find a job where I can earn at least $5000 so I can afford to live downtown next year.
    There is all of this talk about how U of T student have access to better jobs; that is such crap.
    I earn $8.50 and it doesn’t look like I will be earning any more.
