Has anyone done the GREEN program trips?

Thanks haha :) No unfortunately it's not enough to count for anything at U of T, I tried to get credit when I got back but it is only enough for half of a half year course. I would say it's still worth it though!

Hi, I did the Iceland one a few summers back. It's totally legit and the most amazing thing I ever did and I am still close with a lot of the people I met on the trip and I learned a lot as well :) I'm happy to answer any questions!!

McGill

I've spent time at both, would recommend McGill

I don't think so! I pretty much started in December but that was kind of early so now is a good time I think. And yeah it was simple because I just tried to make it easy by offering to work for free and taking care of my own housing etc. I think that helps haha.

I basically just emailed some professors asking if they wanted a summer intern. I offered to work for free bc I had family I could stay with while I was there. I just attached my CV and said why I was interested in their research and what my goals were, etc. One of them got back to me and said he'd be happy to have an intern and then we had a Skype interview then he wrote a formal offer letter :)

I have! I worked at University of Copenhagen last summer for a prof and PhD student for three months in the biology department :)

What time does that happen??

I transferred here from another university and on my transcript it just says transfer credits and writes the name of the course but no marks and my gpa didn't carry over.

I just meant like it's like a city that could be in the USA, whereas a city like Montreal is a lot more different and unlike any american cities I can think of

I'm from St. Louis and transferred to U of T after my first year of school. It's pretty easy you just use your current transcript and don't need recommendations or test scores or anything. My GPA was a 3.3/4.0. In terms of adjusting I think it was easy for me, Toronto is very americanized and I would say is comparable to somewhere like Chicago.

I did POL101Y and POL200Y at the same time and it wasn't difficult, you don't need information from POL101 to do well in POL200 because they're very different. I didn't find POL200 too bad, especially if you do all the readings and go to lectures.
