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

    May 18, 2008

    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!

    director Paul Thomas Anderson: “film school is for chumps”

    I can’t figure out on the web site if there are actual filmmaking courses, not just theory. If there isn’t much, then can you take courses at some of the art schools in Toronto and transfer the credits? And are the courses at UofT good? Do students actually get to make films?

    St. George to UTM? whatever works

    January 8, 2007

    Hello,
    I tried the archives but I couldn’t find the answer, sorry: are the courses at mississauga and st.george similar enough for it to be easy to complete a complete first year for ST.G at UTM upon transfer? Thanks so much, my average just dropped a lot and I’m getting worried.

    questions from the land of the sweater set

    I was wondering is it possible to change colleges in your second year university? or are you just stuck with your college the entire time at UFT?

    st mikes and atheism, a match made in houston…

    March 26, 2002

    Hey,
    I got into U of T which makes me quite the happy girl. However I was offered admission to St. Michael’s College which poses a problem as I have no God and that seems to be a key player there. Is it possible to switch colleges at U of T or are you where they put you intially for all four years. Also, if I cant switch what is St. Mikes about anyways? Is it that religous?
    Thanks,

    there’s a place called downtown…

    January 25, 2002

    So, I’m a student of the Scarb Campus and to tell the truth, it’s not a fun and cool as the downtown campus. So I guess my question is…how do I go about transfering to the St.George Campus? Do I have to apply all over again.

    prove my prof wrong

    October 22, 2001

    1) Alright, some one mentioned that you could not transfer into UToronto if you had already completed 2 years at another college. So there’s a problem for me. I completed 2 semesters at Macalester, completed a semester at a Texan community college and may complete this semester at my Long Island community college. However, a lot of the classes I’ve taken at the CCs I took at Mac so I’m sure they won’t transfer successfully. Also, I wouldn’t mind “disregarding” a few credits if it means I can transfer. Did I screw myself over by going to CC or is it still possible for me to transfer?
    2) Alright, they’ve got this odd system of colleges within the university and then houses within that college. Which isn’t so strange except it looks like you apply directly to the house too. So if there’s only 400 spaces in one house, if you’re their 401st choice, does the university not accept you at all or do you just get placed in another house? Or am I misreading the entire thing and you don’t apply to a house?
    That’s it for now. Any other information is appreciated, however.
