Toronto Metropolitan University Speciality : Psychology
programme: Childhood and Youth Studies

Although I have changed my program into something else. The program was a good experience because of the some of the professors. Some of them would talk about their backstories and experiences in the field and crack jokes. Overall I think that the programs have a good balanced of seriousness and enjoyment in the program.

One of the main reasons I dislike about TMU is their lack of accessibility and flexibility in small programs. The expectation to be on top of your workload in small programs are want causes a large dropout rate. For instant, the field places we’re expected to do is tiring and exhausting. Now add the regular course work, a job and other responsibilities it becomes almost impossible. Another thing I j noticed is regarding professors in the same program, there is no consistency with expectations.

I am currently enrolled at Ryerson University as a fourth-year student. I love the campus life at Ryerson, I personally never lived on campus and had to commute so I made good use of my time and the facilities on campus. There are different floors for studying and each one had its own purpose. If I want to study quietly and have a quiet space around me, I would go to a specific floor, if I want to study with friends, be more casual and social, I could go to another floor that has couches and beanbags and is a more relaxed environment. The student body is made up of both international students and domestic students and I think there is a great balance as I’ve made friends from both groups. I can’t think of any improvements that could be made as far as the school goes, the school is located at the heart of downtown Toronto, so it is a unique environment. I would recommend the school to others, especially if you are looking for a unique university experience.
