The St. George Campus will clarify things for you, the TA's will go the extra mile for you, the undergraduate professors will make you think and invite more than thinking but a welcome opportunity to prove them wrong with arguments and the University hosts a program to help people get to that place of reflection but they can be very hard on you.

Honestly, it wasn't that bad. This campus is full of opportunities and resources, both academic and non-academic-related. Lots of course options to choose from. Had some good profs and TAs. But beware: some students you bump into can be a bunch of snobs. Overall, my experience wasn't great but it wasn't too bad either. It was satisfactory.

Uoft doesnt give attention about its international students and only makes decisions judged by the students residing there
Overall 1.4
An awful place where the higherups and professors don't care about their students. All the people who say their education here was "worth it" don't realize that they could have gotten the same opportunities at a fraction of the cost to their wallets and mental health.

Real stressing and hard school, hard to get into graduated school! Don't come!
Overall 1.7
School is hostile towards undergrads. Most professors are terrible at teaching with some being very harsh on students. Also, a lot of weird strangers on campus or slightly off campus. Some of the TAs can also be terrible at teaching and grading. I don't recommend going to this university if you want an excellent university life
Overall 1.8
Curriculum is not the best. Faculty very few have mentorship skills. Bias and mistreatment to students exist. Overall, Non supportive environment Don’t recommend, there are better schools.
