Do you get a free UofT t-shirt or hoodie once you arrive at UofT? Do you need to live in rez to get a free UofT tee?<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n
nah. nothing at uoft is for free, and even the things that seem to be free (access to gyms, libraries, orientation week) are things that you’ve already paid for. in some ways, it’s a good thing, because it prepares you for “real” (note the heavy scare quotes) life.<\/p>\n
unfortunately however, t-shirts and hoodies aren’t included in your incidental fees<\/a>. i don’t know where you heard that you get a free uoft tee (haha, tee-tee) in res. that’s not a thing that happens, and i know people in pretty much every res on the downtown campus.<\/p>\n the only free piece of clothing you’ll get will be an orientation t-shirt, assuming you choose to participate in orientation, and that’s going to be more about college<\/a>\/faculty<\/a> pride than uoft pride. if you want uoft merch specifically, you’ll need to spend\u00a0$40 on a hoodie from the bookstore<\/a> like the rest of us plebs. i will say that they are really soft, though.<\/p>\n cheers,<\/p>\n aska<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Do you get a free UofT t-shirt or hoodie once you arrive at UofT?
