<p>Okay, well, I know a lot of people are trying to make the same decision. However, I haven't seen a post really with my specific needs... so I'm creating one. Someone please help me make a rational decision, or any type of rational decision. My deadline is May 1st (For my program)</p>
<p>UofT: I'm in Victoria College, possibly Vic One (haven't heard from them yet, but shouldn't be a stretch given my marks) with no scholarship. I do love the seminars, and the fact that there are so many courses and majors to choose from. I also like how close it is to home and the convenience of the city. (I live in Mississauga). I'm also in love with the U of T library. The campus however, is wayyy too big and impersonal. I don't fancy myself walking from Vic College to Woodsworth in the winter. I've heard scary stories about the first year classes too... I'm afraid I'll drop out. </p>
<p>Queen's: Queen's has been my dream school since Gr 8...even though that changed in gr 12 in favour of U of T. I'm in the Bader International Study program for England. (CASTlee :D) with a scholarship of 2000 and a bursary of 6000 first year. (the program is gonna cost me 32k at least). There is also a renewable bursary for second year of 2000 plus a Work Study program for 2000. I think Kingston is beautiful, but the library does leave a little to be desired compared to UfT. I think I do prefer the general atmosphere of the UofT campus, perhaps because Queen's is a foreign atmosphere but I can see myself getting used to it. I'm in love with the International program though. However, there aren't as many cool seminars and courses as UofT.</p>
<p>Both my majors are in Arts, specifically in the direction of Political Science. I want to go out of the country for graduate studies, preferably to England (my dream is Oxford, however far fetched and expensive that is). Possibly into Law or otherwise. I see myself going international, however, not confining myself to Canada so international reputation does play a factor too.</p>
