Something to consider when evaluating options regarding your post secondary education: Don't let one convincing person change your mind. Take everyone's opinion into consideration, but take them with a grain of salt. Make your own decisions. Do your resarch.

Lots of valid points in here. So leaving all the justification out it....
My top three votes go to 1) Trinity 2)St. Mikes 3)Innis. When I actually seriously looked at going to U of T (7 years ago) that was the order of my picks then as well as now after having several friends go through all three of those colleges. Positive experiences at all of them for sure but when visiting my buddies the most pleased with their experience were at Trinity, and seeing them there made me wish I would have put Trinity U of T higher on my list before choosing.

Lighten up man, I was joking with the heathen thing seeing as how the conversation mentioned multiple times religious colleges. Damn man you need sleep more than I do.

I picked it from that, because from what he said he is not picking an educaton based on who's closest to a subway, and as several of us stated the physical locations make no difference on the education.

Jeez, sorry if I came out harsh in my initial response to your post.

Also with regards to Ryerson vs UofT I know when I was applying Ryerson did not have anything like U of T where some of the largest companies in North America (and the world) including Fortune 500 companies, come to hunt you down.

PS. Listen to The Highroller, and make sure not to have 1 person convince you, take all of our advice, and do research on the universities/colleges.

PSS. Another little thing I forgot to mention, just so you know the Commerce program at U of T works primarily on Economics and Accounting for the first 2 years, and finance courses begin in third year (I'm going for Finance as well).

University of Backbone.

It's a nice campus with lots of life and freedom from stupidity, located polar opposite to the Spineless Jellyfish School for Sucks (SJSS).

It's called the turkey dump... many of us have been through it and it made us all better people in the end. I was lucky enough to be turkey dumped twice in two consecutive years.

I'm not. I'm laughing becasue I hear that ALL THE TIME. To be honest, the majority teenage kids don't know fuck all about love or relationships and it's very evident. Of course there are some legit ones, but very rarely. I'm not saying your like that thou...

Are you going to answer the question now?

lol. I swear man, it's somthing in the air around that time! sorry to hear that thou, that shit sucks.

number 1 lesson learned from university... 1)don't choose a school based on a girl or guy!
Second lesson learned, spend your time in university getting to know yourself first and foremost before putting others ahead of you.

I learned both of these by doing it the hard way. Don't repeat my mistakes if you can avoid them.

meh looking back it was the best things that could have happened to me at the time. I needed a head check anyway and both girls gave it to me fair and square. Even the weakest relationships can last a month apart.... but making it past thanksgiving break is the true test.

By that point you've met other people and god forbid even some of them might be more interesting and fun to be around than the person you've been seeing.... it's kind of a harsh reality the first time you are part of it but it teaches you a lot and makes you happier in the end.

Exaclty. Don't get so worked up about it, move on! (Not saying YOU are) It's better you broke it off with them anyways. Your saving yourself many headaches and shitty sleepless nights down the road!

WHo gives a shit about majority. DOnt judge based on stereotypes. I know stereotypes are often truth but dont judge any particular individual based on stereotypes. People are different.

Ah okay.

I dont actually go to u of t, (i go to York) but beware of the pretentiousness of the joint...but having said that if you live east of the city (sig says outer space) you may want to consider the scarborough campus....I litterally study there 5 times a week till 4am and the people there, the atmosphere and all that...are fantastic.

Good luck.

ps.having said that I went to a kegger at trinity college one year and it felt like a high school dance.

I wouldn't say that. That campus is pretty dead. I used to date someone who was there, he was soo fucking miserable - he just wanted to transfer downtown. but yes good for studying.
