Social Life and Logistics for Transfers?

<p>Got accepted as a intl transfer to BComm (from US uni). Couple concerns, though. </p>

<p>Social:
1) How's the social life? How easy or hard is it for transfers to meet people?
2) Looks like on-campus housing is all full. How will living off-campus affect my campus experience? I feel like living in a 1BR off-campus apartment could seriously hurt the fun I could have at McGill.</p>

<p>Logistics:
1) How easy is it to get a student visa?
2) Are you allowed to bring in your RX meds or do you have to get new prescriptions from Canadian doctors? (it's a Schedule III controlled substance in the US and Schedule IV in Canada)
3) Do US cell phones/numbers work up there? </p>

<p>Sorry if any of the questions seem ignorant or unintelligent, I just never thought I'd be transferring internationally haha...</p>
