I am commuting from Mississauga. It's really not that bad of a drive. Getting to school takes about 35 minutes, getting home takes about 25 minutes.
Personally I haven't been to the welcome week, however I did attend the Welcome day and orientation.

Just make sure you schedule your classes so that you don't end up leaving too late.

I know tons of people commuting from Mississauga. Most people I know take the Go Bus from Square One or from Trafalger and 407 (Oakville carpool lot). Takes on average 30-35mins to get to campus. If you take the express bus Square One you can get here in 25mins or less sometimes.

Yup, I also commute from Mississauga (Square One). And for the person who asked, bus 47 stops 3 times along the way and takes 45 minutes. The 47A and 47B are express buses and take between 30 and 35 minutes.
