Hi!
I am thinking about transferring to U of T next year because I am interested in their radiation therapy program. I’m currently in my first year of bachelor of science program at a university in Nova Scotia, and I have never been to Toronto, let alone the U of T, so I was hoping for some advice!
I have no idea which college would be best to choose as a science student, and I want to live in a residence that will allow me to meet lots of new people considering I know like one person going to U of T.
My friend is living in chestnut residence next year so I was wondering, if I decide to live in the same rez as her, if it is a good social residence? Or if iI would be better off living in a difference residence as a new transfer student going into their second year….
I need all the help I can get to help me make my decision!
Thanks!
-Alexandra

Yo yo Alexandra,
I’m going to link you (like all college inquires) to a previous one that outlines each college and their pros and cons.
Chestnut … ooooh chestnut.
If you are straight with the application and flatly say “I want to party and dance all night”, they will make sure to put you on a floor with other people who claimed the “party monster” title, or simply just want to be social and meet knew people.
I have two accounts of chestnut:
Dude 1 = incredibly social floor. Chill fests galore. Parties. yahoo.
Other person = an incredibly studious floor, but found 3 party buddies and lived happily ever after, dancing their lives away and stealing Christmas ornaments through the night.
On a side note to those accounts. The ‘other person’ continued to live off campus with those 3 friends and have a glorious time. While? ‘dude 1’ rarely sees the people he lived it up with for a year. It definitely depends on the year you go and the crowd Chestnut has to offer that year.
The food and private showers are sick at Chestnut.
Stay Gold,
Aska
