Tips: You can check credit transfers options which might save you a few dollars. You should also verify accommodation before paying the lease money. Try to utilise the facilities provided by your school, like library, etc. My cohort was not very diversified which is something I was disappointed from.

Likes (Safety): The university area is safe and secure. There is policing on subways as well. Downtown Toronto is generally a shady place, you do find homeless and intoxicated people around the subway station who do misbehave at times. I have also seen people getting robbed in front of me, so just carry pepper spray, be alert and smart.

Dislikes (Value for money): I feel that the tuition fees is expensive in terms of the quality of education provided. However, if you see the standard tuition rates of fellow colleges in Canada, Toronto, one wouldn't say that it's expensive. My classes were online for the first semester due to which I couldn't avail the facilities offered by the university.
