Me too Currently Im in high school next year will be my last year Ive always wanted to study in Canada these videos just motivates me to study harder lovin the content subbed 😁
Hey Richard👋 I am a grade 11 student from Nova Scotia and have just started to look at Universities. The University of Toronto is one of my top choices. It just so happens that you showed up on my TH-cam feed. Your videos have definitely helped me get a better look at the school and the environment of Toronto. Thank you!!!
You are amazing, I've been looking for a video about u of t dorms for so long, thank you this was enlightening. Question: does the university in general have a free gym for students??
Haha thank you so much for your kind words and yes normally the university provides gym membership to students :) (this fee is included in your tuition, but I am pretty sure you can opt out of it as well).
Hey I love your videos, they played a big role in helping me deciding which university to choose. Btw I just saw you at the new college residence meeting!
Haha thank you so much for your kind words and I am glad to hear that you are staying at 45 Willcocks this year! Feel free to say hi if you ever see me in the building :)
Just out of interest, how many students live on a floor? (2 washrooms per floor times 4 stalls seems somewhat limited... but of course depending on how many people live there)
Hey Richard, I had a question. Are we allowed to change our dorms? Secondly if we opt for a room mate earlier and later on reject the idea and want to shift to a personalised room, can we do that? Waiting for your response. thanks
hi richard! thanks for making this video. i have a question about the mailbox- if you order something that is too big to fit in it, like an amazon package, how will it get sent to you? also, are you allowed to have your own countertop stove in your dorm?
The dorm will keep everything in the storage until the student picks it up so don't worry about that. Also you won't be able to have your own countertop stove in your room since it's considered as a fire hazard!
Can students from other colleges eat in the New College cafeteria and any other cafeterias? Or do meal plans only allow you to eat in one spot in the entire campus (our own college)? Thanks Richard! I’ve been binging your content
Haha I am glad to hear that you binge watched my videos! I am pretty sure you can get a meal plan from New College even if you are not staying at New College but I am not 100% sure. I would definitely recommend you to reach out to New College about this question👍👍
Hi if you can help me, could you let me know the capacity right now in residence u of t? Is it 100% or kind of empty? My friend is in waiting list. Thank you.
Hey Richard! I just signed up for a UofT webcast for prospective students. Do you know how is that? And what questions should I ask? Is it going to be helpful?
I never attended UofT's webcast so I wouldn't be able to tell you much about it but I would recommend you to ask if they made any changes to the application process this year due to COVID-19👍👍! (I think it's going to be helpful)
I am not too sure if there are scholarships that guarantees your place at the dorm but if they do exist I would assume that the university will accommodate you to dorms like this!
Hey Richard, I have a few questions regarding admission in uoft as an international student. 1. Do they take any entrance exam? 2. Do i need to take a SAT exam? 3. Do I need to take IELTS?
IELTS yes they're compulsory if your native language is not English (it makes sure and gives you the certificate which states that you're fluent and understand English.) SAT though it is not compulsory for Canadian colleges it is advised to take the exam, this makes your CV a bit more intensive. As for entrance exams, i do not know much about them since i am studying in 11th grade right now. I know you would not need a reply after a whole 2 years but i replied since, many other students need the answer to your question. Please do not take this in the wrong way, I'm just trying to help!
I would recommend you to participate in floor events, meetings and demonstrate good standard in your first year. This will definitely boost your chance of living on residence again in your second year :)
hi richard! ı m going to ask you something please answer. I m going 11th grade and ı want to study on u of t , it s my biggest dream. I have so much extracurricular activites since 12 years old. my grades are 92 out of 100. (I live in turkey and we are not seeing IB or AP lessons) but ı m preparing on ielts exam. Do you think ı can get into u of t
Does anyone knows that if the washrooms are in a rushy time like morning or before night, would you have a super long waiting time for a shower? Since its gender neutral, girls would probably take longer for showers? And do we have to like stand there the whole time while waiting for the shower room to be done
Hey you're such an amazing person and thanks for your efforts for showing us all this stuff. Also Can i be roommates with opposite gender in university of Toronto dormitories? And is 45 Wilcox dorm gender neutral?
Hi Richard 👋🏾 I am a new member on your TH-cam channel. Well i had a bad journey of searching the best accommodation to live, every accommodation i was looking for it has very very bad reviews, people complains alot these accommodations are Campus one, Parkside and a little bit complains from Centennial place. Now i am really confused I don’t know which accommodation I should book, Thanks God i get you, and I know through your videos i will get help and guidance 😄 I think you have a good heart 😄 will you help me to recommend/show me the best and affordable accommodation to stay? Because all accommodation mentioned above are too expensive to live and i need affordable accommodation or like yours to stay. Please 🥺

Yes, there are dinning halls at uoft👍👍 I think most colleges have dining halls with few exceptions like Innis college
@@RichardHan oh, thanks for replying

Hello pls show us how to operate the washing machine include that in your vlog. Thanks
Which colleges would you say are the top 3 in order?
i have another question!! can ppl from other colleges (i.e. trinity college) stay at a different residence (i.e. victoria college residence)???
Hmm I am pretty sure you can't but I would recommend you to contact your college registrar about this as well!
@@RichardHan thanks!
Were you on the st george campus in your first year
Yes, this is my second year of staying at 45 Willcocks which is in St. George campus👍👍
Hi @Richard han is there any cleaning service available there in your dorm??
There are caretakers working at the dorm👍👍! (if that's what you mean by cleaning service)
@@RichardHan thanks for the reply, will be applying toronto uni after summer 2021
this is prob a weird question BUT do dorm rooms have bathrooms (with shower) in them?
(not talking abt the public restrooms on every floor)
Not in these typical dorm rooms, but if you want a personal washroom you can look into other higher quality dorms like chestnut and campus one👍👍!
Hi if you can help me, could you let me know the capacity right now in residence u of t? Is it 100% or kind of empty? My friend is in waiting list. Thank you.

@@RichardHan Thank you so much Richard ❤️ Really appreciate it☺️
when selecting your college residence do you specifically chose 45 Willocks? or the system placed you there?
I selected 45 Willcocks when I was doing my residence application!
@@RichardHan Where and when do you select this?
I am a west African student hoping to get into U of T
How is SAT going to help me get in ?
If we just win the scholarship an they promise us to provide accommodation l,so will the accommodation be these type of dorms??
I am not too sure if there are scholarships that guarantees your place at the dorm but if they do exist I would assume that the university will accommodate you to dorms like this!
Hey Richard, I have a few questions regarding admission in uoft as an international student.
1. Do they take any entrance exam?
2. Do i need to take a SAT exam?
3. Do I need to take IELTS?
@@abhinandandas3234 compulsory??
Isn’t it supposed to be just compulsory for scholarship or something?
IELTS yes they're compulsory if your native language is not English (it makes sure and gives you the certificate which states that you're fluent and understand English.)
SAT though it is not compulsory for Canadian colleges it is advised to take the exam, this makes your CV a bit more intensive.

Please do not take this in the wrong way, I'm just trying to help!
How do you secure a place in dorm as an upper year, cuz I'm interested in living on campus as in my second year.
I would recommend you to participate in floor events, meetings and demonstrate good standard in your first year. This will definitely boost your chance of living on residence again in your second year :)
I'm coming to Canada to study at University of Toronto for my masters degree, what do you think I should know 🙂
What are your future plans?
Hey !
Is there a boarding school t ??
when taking a bath...do u have to use a shower or are buckets provided?
Students don’t usually take baths but you can most definitely use the bathtub to take baths if you want👍👍!
So satisfying.i have a question,can students from highschool use dorms? because I'm 16 and I'm gonna go to Toronto before my college
Please can you give a full procedure of how to apply to study pharmacy, I am a Nigerian, finished secondary School in 2019
Thank you Richard. Is there any possibility to get a dorm with a private bathroom?
hi, my name isn't ryan scofield, but im going into rodman next year lmao
And do students have to move between residences when they go from first year to second year and so forth?
Nope! students can choose to stay in any residences regardless of their year of study :)
I've heard that u of t recommend only freshmen live in campus. Is it true?
I think uoft recommends/prioritizes first years to live on campus but It's not limited to only first year students👍👍!
How does it work for Brazilians to get in there?
i want to move to Canada and go to Toronto Uni, but which college is best for business students?
Is living in dorm mandatory in university of Toronto?
Nope, it's all up to you!
Thanks for the reply ! 😊

Hey Richard, I just moved into 45 Willcocks today and I want to ask a dumb question: do you know where I can get drinking water?😂

Is there rooms where 2 ppl can stay???
Hey you're such an amazing person and thanks for your efforts for showing us all this stuff. Also Can i be roommates with opposite gender in university of Toronto dormitories? And is 45 Wilcox dorm gender neutral?
