U of T or Johns Hopkins

<p>I applied to chemical engineering at both Johns Hopkins and U of T. I love the camaraderie and spirit of Skule. I like how the program is structured and the many co-ops. I like Johns Hopkins because of its program and the school spirit at Hopkins.</p>

<p>I was wondering which one is more prestigious in Canada. From rankings I see that Toronto is ranked higher than Johns Hopkins, but no one knows it in the US. </p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>I have heard of U of T. good school with a tough reputation, i believe.</p>

<p>What do you want to do with your degree?</p>

<p>I honestly don’t know much about ChemBE/ChemE except it is one of the toughest majors you’ll find in terms of courseload and difficulty… but i’m guessing you should decide based on which school sends the most students into the field you want to go into.</p>

<p>I want to specialize in chemical engineering with a biochem slant (which it seems like the UofT program has), but I’m not sure if I want to be a doctor or if I want to go into it with a business slant (that’s why Rotman sounds appealing).</p>

<p>So it seems as though you are Canadian but you want to go to a US grad school eventually (you were concerned about UT reputation here and you want to go into grad school right)? I think going to Hopkins would help in that case, as there are not many spots for international students (at least in med school) and the premed programs here are among the best in the country.</p>

<p>Im sure UofT will be familiar to grad schools but something tells me going to Hopkins would serve you better if your goal is a US grad school.</p>

<p>I’m actually American, but I’m wondering which one would look better to US/Canadian applicants.</p>

<p>U of T = 60,000 students
JHU - 4,800</p>

<p>I think that speaks for itself when it comes to teaching, learning and results upon graduation. </p>

<p>They are POLAR opposites in undergraduate experiences. Can you visit JHU?</p>
