Hello,<\/p>\n

I am enrolling in UofT’s Faculty of Arts and Science Program for the fall semester of 2018, and I wanted to ask how I could choose the Chestnut Residence as a preference on my OUAC application? It only gives me the options to rank the 7\u00a0 Faculty of Arts and Science colleges. Also, if I want to live in Chestnut, what college would I be considered a part of?<\/p>\n

\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n

hi!<\/p>\n

when applying to the faculty of arts and science, you have to also apply to a college<\/a>. though most people who live on res do live at the res that corresponds to their college, it’s not required.<\/p>\n

after being admitted to u of t, you will be prompted (in my year, it was via email. i don’t know if that’s changed) to apply for res<\/a>. in the application, you’ll be able to pick between all the different residences (college affiliated or not). if you want to live in chestnut, this is when you would pick chestnut (if i remember correctly, it was also a ranking system, so you’d have to rank chestnut first). check out this link<\/a> for a more detailed breakdown of all the different college affiliated residences and this link<\/a> for more info on chestnut.<\/p>\n

if you live in chestnut, you can be a part of any of the 7 colleges. the college you belong to isn’t just where you live, it’s also the admin and resources that you can access. for example, if you needed to talk to a registrar, you’d get in contact with your college registrar. for the most part, there aren’t too many major differences between the colleges, but i still suggest doing your research.<\/p>\n

\"investigating<\/p>\n

so, basically right now, you need to rank the 7 colleges (after doing your research)<\/a>wait until you’re accepted to u of t, and then apply for residence!<\/p>\n

i hope this helps, good luck \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

peace and love!<\/p>\n
