Do you know what it means when U of T grads identify themselves as “9T0”, “5T2”, etc. How is this converted into their year of graduation?
And…are all U of T buildings named in homage to their Oxford University counterparts in Britain? Eg. Trinity, New, etc…
is it easy to make friends with people from different colleges than yours?
How is Vic..??
I got accepted to U of T but I was really disappointed that I did not get into Trinity. I was kinda bitter because my friend who had a lower average got accepted (is it because of religious affliations or different program).. I am still kind of disappointed but as I talk more with people who know something about Vic. they say its alright. I really want to how the residency is like..
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,

Is it not true the colleges differ from each other in different faculties? i mean, if i choose commerce as my major, i can choose any of the college as well?
Will the amount of student influence my applying to UofT? e.g. Trinity will accept only 350 freshmen, dose it mean the chances there are less?

———————————————
first: if you choose commerce as a major, you can belong to any college without being at a disadvantage. You will have the same academic opportunity, and classes, as students belonging to another college.
second: if you apply to a college and do not get accepted into that specific one, then you will be considered for other colleges as well. you better check up on that last point to make sure I am not talking out of my ass.
yes, trin is harder to get into. that is to say that the average needed for acceptance is higher. every college has a certain number of spots open to each stream of each program. for example, innis knows it’s allowed to let in so many humanities students and this many business students. the number for students does effect everyone’s chances of getting in, because they accept on a descending order of grades. what i mean is that the best, then second best, then third, down to the very lowest.

Hi!

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.
Which college (for residence purposes ONLY) have the nicest rooms? As in nicest, I mean, biggest, most homey, cleanest, etc. Could you maybe, for every college, tell me how the rooms are like? Thanks a bunch
hey. how goes?
