University of Toronto - UofT Speciality : Sociology
programme: Arts and Sciences

Each professor and teaching assistant portrayed nothing but kindness and helpfulness. The professors instruction outlined their passion of the subject which translated into a digestible understanding for the students, even when the content was difficult to understand. The teaching assistants consistently showed that they are there to help you succeed and further your knowledge. Of course not every lecture and assignment feedback was a success. For example, the mid-term exam for my philosophy class was a disaster for almost the entire class despite being given potential exam questions to study beforehand. Even though I only got a 50% for an exam worth 25% of my grade; my teaching assistant was incredibly helpful and willing to go over each individual question with me outside of their office hours. The program may not be perfect but the instructors and teaching assistants made up for it.

University of Toronto, as many of us have heard is a university with a lot of opportunities. In my opinion, the thing that sets this university apart is the acceptance rate and diversity. Being the top 20 colleges in the world, U of T sits around 43% acceptance rate all around the globe. Everyone is catered to and no one is discriminate against. There are a bunch of accessibility services and accommodation with a bunch of job opportunities as well which help in keeping you busy. However, one thing many people dislike is the pressure and the amount of work you have to put in to succeed. However, it has it benefits as well since it prepares you for the later pressures in life.
