Hello,
I’m planning to go to UC. Do you know if students can get their own wifi plans in a (dormitory style) residence? Do you know anyone who does? I am a computer engineering student and have a couple projects that require high bandwidth and data usage.
Thanks,
Adrian

Hi Adrian,
So I don’t know about getting your own plan, nor do I know anyone who one, but omg, I’ve been trying to research your question for ages.
Then I just gave up and asked someone from engineering for help.
Basically, after chatting with that person and then two other engis, you’ll be happy to hear that there won’t be any need for your internet plan. No one’s ever had a problem with a lack of data or bandwith, so what the university supplies for you should suffice.
Likewise, if you’re in engineering, you actually get access to a lot of buildings at all hours including the science hotspot Bahen Centre that has the engi lounge or whatever it is where you can find a bunch of computers and tired stressed students. So if you accidentally use up what the university allows you from too much streaming, you can always go there. 🙂
Cheers!
