Student review [#36686] for Computer Science
at University of Toronto - UofT

I have never had any regrets coming here! I enjoyed my time here every second. Here are some of the points that I liked about UofT throughout my undergrad time:

Organized professors. I know I might’ve gotten extremely lucky, but the professors here are exceptionally good. Some are underwhelming, some simply lack the pedagogical background, but others are spectacular. They definitely make you work for it, but if you have the UofT mindset – this shouldn’t be an issue for you!

The campus! I don’t think I’ve seen a more beautiful campus anywhere in the area. The Buildings span from brutalistic Robarts library to the elegant and beautiful Kaven library at Knox college, to the underground archives of Gerstein and depths of the stem buildings, this campus can become a massive adventure if you take a second and just go exploring. Trust me, I’ve been everywhere, it’s worth it!

The big thing I disliked was the Workload. The workload here is insane at times. You can at times say goodbye to your social life, and study your head off. It will pay off for sure, though it is disheartening at times to turn down your friends’ party invitations, and just yourself with casual hobbies because school takes up so much time. Some courses are extremely dense with material, while others are simply just difficult, either way you will spend a lot of time studying, which definitely isn’t for everyone.
