U of T may be a big name, but the actual experience has been deeply disappointing. There are major delays in releasing marks, and students are often discouraged or outright unable to ask questions during class. Even worse, the syllabus is changed in the middle of the semester, creating confusion and instability.
Final exams sometimes merge multiple classes together, assignments are changed just days before the deadline, and if you want a regrade, you’re required to write a two-page essay justifying why you deserve it. This feels excessive and unfair.
International students and local students alike pay extremely high fees for what feels like a shoddy, disorganized education. This does not feel like a university focused on improving students’ futures, but rather a money grab hiding behind a prestigious name.
Please, if you are a visitor, wanting to write a review about how amazing the architecture is, dont. The star rating on google is not reflecting the reality of student life on campus, but rather the physical appeal to tourists.
