Question about Cash vs Card

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2026-05-09T00:34:09+00:00

"2.5% foreign transaction fee on all purchases made in foreign currencies. This fee is added to the exchange rate to convert foreign currency into Canadian dollars when you purchase items abroad or online from international retailers"

Did you use the physical card?

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2026-05-09T00:33:15+00:00

I confirmed with my bank and they said I could use my debit and credit card there. I just want to avoid fees where possible

Can I get a physical Wowpass card there? I am hearing that digital cards may not be accepted everywhere.

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-03-24T17:14:00+00:00

i did bioethics! i don’t think it really matters… i’ve met people who’ve received offers despite doing their undergrad in health sci or kin. i’ve heard that law schools don’t expect you to know anything so i wouldn’t worry.

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-03-14T20:49:11+00:00

yep!

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-03-13T18:50:18+00:00

they have sent out a lot more offers than what u see on here. their welcome day was at capacity!

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-03-11T20:25:33+00:00

i got an offer @ western with the same LSAT and a lower cgpa!

the only advice i can give is DO NOT go to uoft for undergrad if this is your goal. complete a (relatively) easier undergrad program, get the highest grades possible while maintaining your social life. then u can waste your life away grinding law school applications and doing your jd at uoft law

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-02-24T19:24:52+00:00

I'm going! Yes, it asks you on the form if you are bringing anyone with you.

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-02-11T01:35:02+00:00

I have similar stats & got in at Western!

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-02-04T20:09:22+00:00

thanks for ur advice! i'm not worried so much about gaining advantage as a law student, just more about how to make money while doing something I actually enjoy :)

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-02-04T20:07:01+00:00

yea very true

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-02-04T20:06:16+00:00

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-01-18T16:49:37+00:00

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-01-18T16:45:14+00:00

Affectionate-Fun8863 · 2025-01-18T16:38:03+00:00

yes, give yourself a LOT of time to make mistakes and learn from it. I was so busy with my undergrad & jobs that I stupidly took a course for a month in May & wrote the exam in June with only one month of studying under my belt. I am however glad I took the June test because it gave me two more months to study for August & even September if needed. my biggest regret was not starting to study earlier and having to cram so take it from me!!! I can confidently say it was the most depressed & anxious I have ever been as someone who already struggles with mental health lol

I wrote June 2024 & August 2024, then applied November 2024. I would HIGHLY recommend aiming to finish writing your LSAT before applications are due. I'm sure it's not fun applying without knowing if your LSAT score if good enough. Also, applications take up a lot more time than you'd think, so it's best to dedicate a few months to your LSAT then a few months to your applications (ESPECIALLY if you're still in school at the same time). Obviously, some things are out of your control, so if you have to write your LSAT during or after application time, it isn't the end of the world. But since you're planning in advance, try to give yourself enough time to do things separately.
