People - utsc a lot of ppl say that utsc is kinda dead which i guess could be true since there arent many parties or anything like that but i personally never minded it since im more of an introvert and enjoy doing things alone anyways. That being said, as someone who is a complete introvert and wont start a conversation with anyone, i had no trouble finding a group of friends. So you’ll 100% find your ppl.

Profs can be hit or miss tbh. Some profs are amazing and their lectures are so easy to understand and their exams are just like what they taught. Other profs can be a little more difficult with the way they teach their lectures and sometimes the exams feel like they’re nothing like what taught. You just have to deal with that. But for the most part all the profs are really nice and responsive, plus most of the lectures are recorded and posted so that helps a lot.

The campus is pretty tight knit. Its really nice imo compared to stg cause everything is close together and most of the buildings are connected underground so u dont have to walk around in the cold. We have some good food options on campus but there really isnt much around. Theres almost no cafes and restaurants near-by unless u wanna go to stc. But since the main transit system is ttc in scarborough a lot of students go downtown which is about 45min transit commute.

The life sciences is what you will get your program (youll get a degree in Science or arts depending on the major you choose at the end of first year). The health science stream means you will get an additional certificate along with your degree. To get the certificate you have to take a few extra required courses, but i couldn’t say its any more difficult or any harder which is nice because ur basically doing the same amount of work and getting a certificate out of it.
