While in Grad School
Toronto is the fifth largest city in North America and the most culturally diverse city in the world.The many different neighbourhoods and ethnic communities in this intimate metropolis, like the university’s individual colleges and departments, create a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Size does have an advantage though: the city offers over 1,000 festivals every year, architecture, an amazing array of parks and world class cuisine – all of it accessible by the Toronto transit system’s network of subways, buses and streetcars. Join us for your graduate education and become part of a world-class community.
