Just a side note. My son just graduated from Chemical Engineering at UofT St. George Campus and he was offered a job before he even graduated. He got the offer on April 24, 2020 and started his first amazing job two weeks after on May 11, 2020. This happened during the COVID-19 pandemic when so many people are losing jobs or finding a hard time finding one. UofT is a tough school, no doubt, but it’s the best investment we ever made. Now, the funny thing is my newly graduate son is earning more than me just on his first job (and I thought I had a good pay!).
@@ani9514 Thank you! It’s almost one year now since my son first entered the real working world in the pharmaceutical industry. My 2 cent advice to anyone is - never ever give up even when it’s tough! Work smarter and harder. Wishing you the very best!
I'm at UBC and my first year housing was in hemlesem in totem park and my room was massive. it was a single connected which basically means that you have your own large room and your roommate has her own room and its connected in the middle with a bathroom. so no communal bathrooms and can i just say our bathrooms were so big as well.
I’m going to UBC. I like the weather in BC. U of Toronto as far as I know is very competitive in certain programs and living cost is very expensive, not that ubc is any different
UBC is such a beautiful school! I’m from Vancouver and my dad is a prof there so I’ve been visiting campus my whole life! I love it! I recently got accepted :)
UBC's housings are really nice except for a few older ones. I am pretty sure most of the second or upper-year housings are pretty new and many of them have ocean views!
Heyy! Can you please tell me how I can get in touch with you! I got admitted to New College too, and it'll be great if I already know someone there! And thank you so much for this video. You are really helping people decide soo much! Btw, I checked out your other video, and I am planning to live in 45 Wilcocks too! It was nice to know that the rooms are spacious. You basically explained every aspect really well!
hi, I'm a Canadian citizen but I moved back to India I have done my high school years in India under the CBSE board do I need to write any special exam for the English requirement. for u of t and UBC
At least res at Ubc is terrible, if you're an active male you'll likely be starving at some point in time. All university is stressful, but UofT definitely has a bigger reputation for that. If you're a Canadian then it will likely be less stressful to study close to home
I know this video is two years old but I am a potential transfer student to either of these schools. What is it like making friends on both campuses? I know U of T has a reputation for having only competitive and commuter students so it’s hard to make friends.
thank you this was so helpful! ubc was my first choice for so long but i haven't gotten my decision yet i only got into uoft so i'm trying to figure out if that might be better for me and tbh i think im leaning more towards uoft! i have a question though, does not living in res affect like making friends by a LOT?
cat g I would say yes, especially at u of t if you’re not in res or friends with loads of people in res you will find it harder to make friends. Ultimately you’ll get out whatever you put in, if you spend more time looking for friends and making connections you’ll be fine
Hey, I'm a high school student in Australia and really want to study in Canada.. I think I heard you mention that you were an international student? Could you guys maybe make a video about the whole process you's went through to come and study in Canada as international student? I haven't been able to find too many videos about it and it would really help! I also was wondering if you guys got scholarships or something because I'm interested in going to UBC and for me I think its really expensive (for the program I want to do it's like $60k a year) and I'm pretty sure we can't get loans or anything as international students? Thanks so much, I've already learnt a lot from your videos so thank you!!
Same here, I finish ib school around a month ago and I'm taking a gap year. I rly hope to go ubc, but the the fee is too high(( Do you know anything about loans, scholarships for international students?

Amrita brar can you please tell me what question were you asked in video interview and how it went. Pls it will be of great help for me as i will be applying next year. Also are you from punjab.?
Hi! This question might sound a bit ridiculous but how many math and science (physics and chem) courses can a first-year student at ubc opt for? How many elective would i have in first year?
i was rlly upset i didn’t get into university college and was admitted to new college. if i’m in a single room is it easy to make friends without a roommate? that’s one of my concerns
I am currently a 12th grade student and planning to go Canada for my undergraduate degree but little bit confused to drop one year for extracurricular although I have my NCC certificate, District Science fair certificate as well as State level Science fair nomination certificate and somewhat 6-7 school certificates including 3 camping certificates. Is this enough to get admission in University of Waterloo or University of British Columbia etc... and to persue a good Scholarships. Or should I drop a year for my extracurricular ?
Thank you for this video. I was wondering if you happen to know anyone who is studying computer science at UBC or U of T. (I am struggling in making a decision between these two unis + Waterloo)
Greetings,Great video! I need to know whether you applied as an international student or resident of canada?What are the universities looking in profile esp in extra curriculars in case of international student esp Indians?
got accepted to rotman and sauder . trying to decide. I heard drop out rules. though. with this much competitiveness and tough classes , do you really have social life. which one better in that?
Ah, hello there. I am currently in Class 11 (Commerce) and I study in a CBSE school abroad. I've been thinking about applying to either UoT or UBC. It would be lovely if you can make a video telling us how an international student like me can apply and get into either of these universities and the steps a person like myself should take in order to guarantee being admitted. Thank you!
Are the colleges at Uoft only for those that are in the faculty of arts&science? Or is it for other faculties as well? Also, do u choose ur college or r u assigned one?
Hi! Colleges are only for undergrad students at ArtsSci! Postgrad programs-Engineering don't have that system! It's made to distribute the students into smaller divisions and communities in the huge undergrad population lol! And you get to list your colleges in order of preference when you apply!
Hi, I was wondering if you know how much is the estimated cost outside tuition fees (if you actually end up spending more outside tuition, housing and food) for international students in UBC? And if by chance, you know how is the biotechnology program and how are the professors? I recently got accepted to UBC but I’m still unsure. Thank you! Stay safe!
they have a website where you can see that. I know someone from Japan who is going to study at UBC Okanagan campus and she said she’s paying twice as much as domestic students
Hi, do you know anyone in Victoria College for UofT, whose contact you could pass to me and I could get the perspective on Victoria college as that's where I'm Admitted. Thank you!
Hey PRAVANAN SADA, I just googled UBC and apparently suicide also happened there. My point? It happened in other universities and not just UofT. To all of you young people, suicide is a delicate topic and this is every mother’s nightmare. I encourage you all to keep yourselves physically and medically healthy, use all university resources, take care of yourselves, and with your many talents and the support of your loved ones I’m sure you can make it!!! Isn’t that right, PRAVANAN SADA???
@@flyzone2257 both are pretty diverse, but id say that ubc has more Asians (mainly East Asians ) whereas uoft has a broader range of races, if that makes sense
Hi honestly thank you so much this helped a lot cause i want to attend u of t and i have a lot of questions do you mind if i add you and snapchat and ask you my questions there??
Hey, i just watched your video on the universities you got accepted to! I was wondering if you could share your experience in HighSchool and what marks and extracurricular you joined to get accepted
Muna Mohamed In the video i showed my full transcript of marks! And extracurriculars honestly weren’t that extensive, i did gymnastics for a few years and a charity project I started myself. It all depends on how you frame it
So listen. This year UofT changed the rules completely. The admissions to CS were made much more competitive. The reason is because now they are giving admissions guarantee to all students who got into CS. Earlier , there was no guarantee, EVERY student had to compete to get into CS. So, even if someone got into CS the first year, that might NOT mean that they have CS for all 4 years!! In fact, many people couldn't get into it. For eg: out of 1100 students, only about 500 would actually get into CS from the second year! HOWEVER, this year, they made this change that every CS admitted student has a guarantee. MOST applicants were deferred to Math and Physical Sciences (which I am guessing what you got deferred to too!). Because of this, the competition for out-of-stream students would be higher. And the spots for CS for you guys would be lesser, considering that many spots have been reserved for Direct CS admits. So, it'll be pretty competitive for you guys, but, having said that, it is definitely possible for you to get into CS from another stream, but you'll have to put in the effort! If you believe you truly want CS, you'll get in! Any other questions? Feel free to ask me! I am a freshman admitted this year and I am from India too!
@@shridhar6274 Hey. Thanks, I got the answer. Could I maybe get your Instagram or Snapchat so that I could directly ask you if I have any further questions?
So, I got a comment from my earlier post here from a certain PRAVANAN SADA but I couldn’t find this person‘s comment. I am a 58-year-old mother And I am busy working full-time and I’m not going to go over all of these comments just to find PRAVANAN SADA. This person asked about suicide in my post about my son’s very positive experiences and him finding a job during this 2020 pandemic. Dear PRAVANAN SADA - do you know how to use Google? All you have to do is Google suicides in Ottawa University, Queens University, University of Waterloo, etc., and you will find that sadly suicide happens in many, many universities. Unfortunately, this is now happening in your generation. Perhaps, this will be for another topic, a broader one, wherein kids like you can help other people and not put a a blame on anyone. Peace out, PRAVANAN SADA.
I finally found PRAVANAN SADA. And hey, I just googled University of British Columbia and suicide also happens there. This is not to shame UBC and other universities. I’m just saying that it happens everywhere, sadly, and maybe someday this can be discussed because trust me this is every mother’s worry. What I’m writing here is supported by facts and it is in black and white in the Internet free for the whole world to see. PRAVANAN SADA - Have you learned how to use Google yet?
