Challenging yet Fulfilling experience at the University of Toronto

Tips: 1) The transition is the most difficult part of the process. There is a huge cultural shift, and the only way to overcome it is with time. I have become very independent, and honestly, the experience gives one the confidence to survive and thrive in any situation in any part of the world. 2) I received the International Scholars Award that contributes $180,000 towards my tuition at the university. It's an admission award given based on the student profile. 3) I am very satisfied with my education. I feel very confident about my future career options because of the skills and the opportunities I have gained over the last 4 years at the university.

BA (Hons) in Economics - Batch of 2028

Learning about myself everyday

Tips: Just come with an open mind, because almost every social norm is different from back home, and to thrive, you need to be social; otherwise, you might end up alone. I feel communication is by far the most important skill, so put yourself out there in situations where you are comfortable and have to communicate in all sorts of situations and with people from diverse backgrounds.

Likes (Student Life): The campus being in the heart of downtown Toronto, you can never get bored, and there is so much to do. The thing I enjoy most about my college life is to go on random side quests with my friend, play a random sport, explore the city, etc. I don't really participate much on campus, but there are tons of communities and opportunities.

Dislikes (Internships): Some faculty members' resources are very limited, and they don't prepare you very well for networking and job hunting. You need to do the majority of the work yourself, and even seeking help hasn't been very useful from my personal experience. Internships in Toronto are available in almost all fields.

Life and Research at UofT

Tips: Look, let's be totally real about U of T—the place is a brutal academic monster. There's a genuine reason everyone on campus calls it 'U of Tears.' The workload is just insane, the standards are ridiculously high and it honestly takes over your entire life. But if you can survive the grind, the sheer scale of the courses, the world-class mentorship, and the research opportunities you get access to are unmatched. Because Toronto is easily the most multicultural city in Canada, that exact energy bleeds right onto the campus. You'll find your people here pretty quickly, and blending into the student population isn't the hard part. The real challenge for international students is locking down doctoral funding. While U of T does guarantee a baseline graduate stipend package to support PhDs, direct international scholarships are highly competitive and limited. If you can secure your financial footing, it is easily one of the best, most well-equipped places on the planet to pursue serious research.

Likes (Permanent Immigration): I understand that Canada is still welcoming immigrants and is not as tight in providing permanent residency (PR) to immigrants as many other countries right now. Students pursuing higher education may have a higher chance of getting a PR here. If available oppourtinities feel right, I may decide to stay longer in this country.

Very independent and structured.

Tips: Very research oriented yet fun loving campus. You'll learn a lot more than you initially sign up for yet you'll get an experience to cherish. Professors are very patient and available which makes things easier and the campus is very diverse as well. Learning format is independent and you'll be responsible for your own pace of learning.

Good for exposure and growth.

Tips: I have had a mostly positive experience at university and it has taught me to become more self reliant and capable than before. The academic culture is more straightforward and optional reading isn't exactly optional. Scholarships can also be awarded as the academic year progresses. Part time jobs on campus are limited and very sought after so you'll be lucky to get one.
