Why?

Because the residences were convenient and fantastic. I lived at Pavillon Charles De Konick......or something like that. It's the largest residence. The rooms were good. But more than anything the kitchen are was AMAZING!!! There are huge dining areas, incredible cooking facilities, and large lockers for your ktichen stuff. It's great. And the bus stop that takes you directly to the Old City is right outside your door. Besides, many people chose a host family hoping they would have interaction with them only to discover they lived almost in a separate apartment within their house. Separate entrance and everything. They didn't even eat meals together. The kitchen facilites were great for cutting costs. The University restaurants/cafeterias can get really expensive. We spent like $8 for breakfast the first day......just for a croissanwich and tomato juice!!!

The accomodations were great. I chose to live at the co-ed building and it was the best choice. The female one was the further away...........not only that but they didn't have their own cooking or laundry facilities. ALL we had to do was go downstairs!

Accomodations are quite reasonable at U of T. In the summer as international student the room costs could range between $ 20 Canadian dollars a day. There is a shared washroom and the facilities are great. The residence is located in Victorian buildings and very close to the most popular areas in downtown. I definitely will highly recommend U of T as an alternative for any international student. If you want to taste the North American culture, Canada will delight you with its impressive services and also its multicultural society.
