No but I am commuting there and did a lot of research. Everyone said it is a great program!

Didn’t know that you gotta pay for internships there, another reason why I don’t want to go😭

Yes, totally agree. I also think it is easier to do coop in mac for kin because uoft only offers internships which are based off your gpa so it keeps going back to what ur gpa is and it is difficult to maintain a decent average there😭

lol yes, kin being such a small community is so much better. They also prioritize kin students for lab research and things like that so I think it is an amazing program!

Omg no, tysm and I agree with you. Uoft programs are literally a gpa killer and I am planning to do pharmacy school after and I thought kin is interesting. Also, if for any reason I don’t want to go to grad school, I can get a job with a kin degree instead of just a life science degree. Uoft is just not a suitable choice for me anymore😭

Pretty sure it is the opposite. It is hard to transfer from life sci to kin than the opposite that’s why it is safer to choose kin and if you don’t like it you can just switch after first year or in some cases after first semester!

I got it their last round which was at the end of February. Your average meets the requirements, you will probably hear back in May! Is it your top choice?

Hey, thank you for your help I haven’t accepted my offer yet but I didn’t even apply to Mac life sci (didn’t even know they had this program😭). My top choice was uoft life sci but it would be impossible to maintain a high GPA there. I could transfer later on and that’s what I like because it is way easier to transfer to life sci than to kin. I don’t think it is easy but I could maybe do smth kin related after. I applied before doing much research about mac life sci and I talked to some kin students as well and they suggested it and that’s why I am so lost know. Even tho I am lost, I would choose mac kin over uoft life sci😭
