[quote=Anonymous]It is a good school. As with most UK or Canadian schools, student must be good at self-advocating and at figuring out the administrative processes. There is not the high level of hand-holding that many US schools would have.

UT is not really distributed.

The main campus is the downtown campus, also called "St George".  This has several "residential colleges", which are similar to "houses" at Yale or Harvard, but it also will have commuter students. Apply specifically to the "St George" campus.

UT at Mississauga is really a separate entity - and very strongly a commuter school. Do not apply there.

It is academically rigorous in many STEM disciplines and is usually considered a top-4 university within Canada, along with UBC and McGill and U Waterloo.

Major US tech firms have recruited from UT for many decades for jobs both in US and in Canada. Easy for a UT graduate in STEM who is a US person to get a job in the US afterwards. (I have no information about non-STEM recruiting.)[/quote]
