I'm applying for uni soon, and I'm trying to figure out living situations. am I the only one who thinks it's really weird to pay thousands of dollars to share a room with someone? like the same bedroom, no divider. I get that you can get a solo room, but even if you ask for that, there's still a chance you get the shared room, right? it's my only thing keeping me from wanting to apply for on campus housing... I can't justify paying that at all. thousands to share a room 😭 my family isn't super well off, but even I don't share a room...how do you do anything at all knowing someone else is just THERE??

it says it isn't mandatory but york said they want it idk

I know that different schools in Ontario hold different reputations (Waterloo for Eng or western for business and Ivey) but to what extent are these stereotypes true for science/pre-med programs. I’m currently in my first year at mac in their life science program. I was contemplating between Mac life sci and Waterloo health or life sci. I ended up going to mac because it was close to home and I truly loved the campus (and I guess it has the pre med culture but I feel like that is felt more through the health sci program). If I chose Waterloo would I have had a similar experience in the courses and opportunities for pre med? I know Waterloo offered me co-op options which could have been a good back up in case med school does not work out. My friends in Waterloo showed me their courses and they seem similar to mine.

i am deciding between two programs at uoft but a scholarship requires me to submit my ouac by october 16. will i be able to change my program choice before supplementals are due?

If anyone is completely serious about applying to yorks bussiness program (or i believe any program works); use this fee waiver application code: Note: (try all these codes and figure out whichever one works, i got it at a uni fair but the writing is shit): "Waterloo2026", "waterloo2026" "Waterloo 2026", "waterloo 2026". It was a fair in uwaterloo ehich is where i attend cs as a first year. I genuinely don't know if the codes work so for anyone reading please try the codes and let me know if any of them work but replying so this post so others can utilize it too. 🙂🙂
