Both universities have their own strengths. Uni of Toronto is better for students interested in studies at a university with prestige and quality research. Toronto as a city also offers better social, cultural, and career opportunities. Students also get more course options to choose from.

UWaterloo is better if students are interested in STEM courses. It also offers the the largest co-op program in the US and Canada. Waterloo Uni maintains strong industry connections of its own.

There is no needed GRE requirements for PG candidates at UWaterloo. Instead they must have a UG degree from recognised university or equivalent and submit document requirements such as unofficial reports, LOR, CV, writing sample, English requirements, GRE / GMAT score, Resident card, and portfolio for some courses.
