top 10 Canadian Universitys
Hey guys
I first of all want to say i love Mcmaster and It was my top choice but I want a general Idea of you Canadians
What do you think are the top 10 Canadian university's
Choices
- UFT ( university of Toronto)
- UBC ( University of British Colombia)
-Waterloo
-Mcgill
-Mcmaster
-western
-queens
-Brock
-ryerson
-University of Saskatchewan
- York
-University of Alberta
- Simon Fraser university
- Carleton
- Lakehead University
-Laurentian University
-University of Guelph
-University of Ontario Institute of Technology
-University of Ottawa
-University of Windsor
-Concordia University
Any others worth mentioning
please make a top 10 lists and tell me why you chose them like that
This will be good for perspective students at this time because they have to make a choice
I already chose Mcmaster because when i first saw the campus i did not want to go anywhere else
also the people at mac are really nice and Mcmaster is well known and is one of the top university's in Canada
I cant make one because i dont think i know them all really well maybe upper years can help?
Thanks guys

You should go to the university that is furthest away from McMaster.

Let's not kid ourselves. UoT is undoubtedly the "top" Canadian university in academic terms. As for suggestions for mfattal, I agree with l'etoile.

If you spelled universities wrong, you shouldn't be in university.

Really McMaster?
I would put McMaster 4th. No way it makes top 3. Not anymore.

In General, UofT is the best.
For Engineering, Waterloo because of its co-op.
For girls, McGuill.

4 month work terms only, are you kidding me? By the time you learn where to park your car and where the staff lunchroom is, your work term is over.
The best answer as to what university is the best... "it depends."

The main reason people do work terms is because they need to pay off OSAP. But, if you work 3 work terms, 4 months each, that is more than enough, not only for experience, but OSAP.
When you go fulltime, you won't necessarily have relevant experience, so either way you could be starting fresh.

For undergrad, it really doesn't matter which university you go to. Also, best is a relative term depending on what's most important to you in a university (academic challenge, school-life balance, cost of tuition, location, hospitality services, co-op or summer job opportunities, etc.)

They're definitely good for networking, which is helpful for getting jobs in the future.
