Reviews of University of Toronto Scarborough (College)

Lonely “浪味仙兒” God

Everything thing is fine except the location

A. George Adamson

A good place to get an advanced education.

Don Johnston

The path that leads down from UofT Scarborough campus into Morningside Park is absolutely magical. You can see deer, muskrat, beaver, squirrels and all kinds of birds. Great spot. Park at Miller-Lash House or by the dog park in the valley on Old Kingston Road where Highland Creek runs under it.

Matt Tsui

Nice trail from the U of T campus.

Derek Taylor

Great school without the headache of going downtown. Feels a little like high school. Had great times going. Class 2004.

Aishwarya Prashanth

The amount of support on campus for every student is unbelievable. Universities are not meant to be easy but UTSC equipped me the with the necessary tools to succeed.

Muhammad Jamil Akhtar

U of T Scarborough Campus is an Awsome place to study.

Henry Ikeji

well organised university and good reception ????

Simhayer Parthvi

Best experience ever. I am so grateful to have chosen UTSC as my undergrad. I did my major in Life Sciences and I don't regret it. Miss everyone. Xoxo

Angus Cook

Such a nice campus! Set on the edge of a picturesque valley, backing onto Morningside Park. If you're interested in a walk off the beaten path, take a stroll around the campus, check out the "Rock Walk", the Sakura Grove, and take the winding path down to the valley floor. Truly a hidden gem.

Matthew Tse

Pretty nice school, good business coop program i guess

Christian Chen Liu (iLikeBreathing)

All good

Benjamin Cook

Good place to learn! There is no study space and that is a huge problem!!!

Weeneelicious

Neat, organized. There weren't much people in sight because physical classes are not in session.

JZ K

Very nice

New development wings, state of the art designs.

I did not have the best experience the first and the second year I attended this university. But it’s only as positive as you think it to be. The sciences program is pretty solid here. Lots of opportunities to create extracurricular opportunities or join it. You can form some great relationships here if you choose to. It is a very small campus so it is great to not have to walk far distances to attend classes. It also has an amazing park called The Valley, which is a great stress relief. This university is very inclusive, intimate, and a close community. You choose what you want to do and you get out of it what you put in. I highly recommend joining extracurricular activities as well as any school opportunities. Good luck with your future studies:)

The Scarborough campus of UofT is more of an afterthought. Kinda in the middle of nowhere, not a whole lot to do on campus. The place doesn't look exactly great (underground hallways and classes are called UTSC dungeons), not many places to eat (EDIT: Food in campus are not properly handled, beware) or hang out; and there are few opportunities and clubs going around. The place desperately needs more study space. The campus union is royally corrupt. Being a commuter campus doesn't help, and the mood around you is desolate. Apparently everyone is struggling, and nobody gives a damn about fixing it. Also be prepared for freakishly long commutes. The WiFi is pretty bad too. Programs and profs are pretty much a hit or miss, and they hardly care about student performance. In short, it is the Australia of UofT. Not sure what the Pan Am Centre did to fix anything. Gets mercy points for being a safe campus and having the Morningside Park connected with the main campus.

It is excellent campus, very safe, transit right in the campus, lots of security

André Little

Campus grounds are nice. Cool staff, and students feel, young, wild, and free. In line for the cafeteria, of course. Aha

Nicholas Haggarty

A welcome and very tight-knit community, the Scarborough campus is a wonderful break from the busy life of downtown Toronto. With plenty of access to the campus via public transit, it's easy to find your way. Professors are very approachable and class sizes are well considered. With the arrival of pandemic, the class offerings have diminished but the effort put in by the professors to create a quality online learning environment is undeniable. UTSC is a great campus to still stay connected with nature without losing out on the interconnectedness of the city. Highly recommended!

Rude and sexist registrar advisors. Decided to take a semester off once and went to the registrar, instead of giving solid advice a white woman with short blonde hair and glasses was literally laughing at my marks and commented how "guys think they are so tough" and "did you want to cry in the back"? Disgusting behaviour, tried to report it to Academic advising but they didn't care much at all. Boring commuter school, no social or campus life, small library. Only positive is that there are a few good professors, and the school is still fairly new and clean and always renovating/getting new equipment. Otherwise it kind of looks like a dungeon.

平平无奇的Michael Bo

Happy to be a student in this campus

Fatehpaul Dhaliwal

Ugliest campus hands down (except for the sakura trees). Great community though and (for the most part) great profs. The amount of research opportunities is abundant and obtaining leadership positions isn't hard. Like someone before me said, ignore the people who complain about marks. They're not that hard to get provided you actually do your work properly.

Ferid Ahmed

It's quite a great school academically, and the staff are all really nice. The location of it is the only downside. If only they built an LRT here.

S M

The campus is quite scattered and the buildings aren't very well-labelled so it was quite hard to navigate (I go to UTSG). The study desk dividers didn't go all the way to the end of the table. So sometimes if you are just staring mindlessly to the side, you end up making awkward eye contact with the person sitting beside you. A little strange contact that I didn't necessarily want to have. Otherwise decent campus.

just a dude

Good university, lots of on campus services, you have to go to St. George for most clubs though

Al Khan

I loved this campus. It was an awsome experience. Amazing. Alhamdulilah.

Orrin Van der Griend

Best university ever, best campus with a doubt! For history at least..

Shahzaib Sansi

#1 in Canada. Good , study atmosphere. 60% chinese, 40% Brown, 10% white, 5% black. 5% Arabic. Top 20 University in the world

Surasak Jaraspitayakul

Easy find.

Colin Wiley

This campus is different than downtown. It's a great way to get your education in an area that will cost you less than downtown. You'll make your connections drinking and eating together in houses instead of in the downtown clubs and bars. If you dying for that true Toronto experience this isn't the campus for you but if you want to get your schooling done away for the massive temptation that is the city it's great. You still have the opportunity to get into the city proper but you'll do it 2 or 3 times a month vs everyday. Also some programs do lack things (I.E. studying cadavers and such) that's part of it, if your life needs those things then this isn't the campus for you.

John Alexander

Large campus with a ton of ravine and park area. Parking is still severely cramped for how many students it has.

Marc Laurin

Awesome campus

Sardor Bakhriddinov

Well I bigg aim????????

L Lam

Lots of new buildings and facilities now however not many food options.

Mark Carrasca

This University is what you make out of it. I think what could really improve the teaching is if everyone did their Course Evaluations! If nobody says anything about the bad professors nothing changes.

Frances Wdowczyk

The physical growth of the campus reflects the desire to stay current and to keep challenging social norms. Lots of growth in all areas of the Campus!

Victor 8A

Great

Cordelia Blythe

Good trails. Mostly shaded. Dog friendly

thebuoshoninja

Very nice

aQeela khan

Love the location it's all green and peaceful..

Pouya LJ

Awesome campus, friendly with fantastic faculty.

Farida Pedhiwala

Intimate campus makes for very strong community feel for a huge university like UofT! Excellent courses and staff!

Benedict Lopes

A great university with a campus located in the suburbs.

Storm Cloud

Attending UTSC was the best decision I ever made. Despite the stress from workload that comes with higher learning, I had the best time of my life. Most of the professors will do their utmost to ensure you have all the help you need but then there are few who could care less… but overall, it is a wonderful place to learn and grow. Thank you for everything UTSC.

Salar Astaneh

absolutely no social life very slow and unhelpful staff not so fluent profs or TAs no good food small library too far from everything the best thing about this place is just the name

Vee O

Great school with diverse food choices.

Lari Ferg

I feel like I missed out on the UofT experience by going to this campus instead of the downtown campus. *sigh*

Puneeth Sankaraiah

Amazing uni, loving it so far

diane ferrara

Has a Covid 19 assessment centre.

Arthur Wei

my friend goes here and now he wont visit me :( He's also super stressed from the workload. i had some photos of how happy he used to be before going to UTSC. He used to be a happy boy... MY HAPPY BOY, I DEMAND HIM BACK :'( you can take his money, you can take his freedom, you can take his pride, but you cannot take his love and the love he has for others GIVE HIM BACK!

Ravinder Sandhu

University of Toronto Scarborough (UTSC) is one of the main and largest universities in Scarborough! When I used to live in Toronto, I visited UTSC few times, and it was an amazing experience! Great and modern architecture! Very tidy and spacious! Plenty of services and departments! Great place to study and to obtain a degree! ????

Ryan Hu

Don't really understand why ppl rate here. Like they choose universities by looking at Google map ratings.

Hafsah Fowmy

The back if UFT got amazing trails, perfect for walks and biking.

SiriusX aka NSCALEGUY

It's cool

Sammy Mak

Used to drop off/pick up my little girl for school here. Now come here for Sakura once a year ... ????

Rin T

I love my campus, period.

Jonathan Marcello

Great campus, nice views.

Henry “Coolsbreeze” Steven

Horrible experience at this school. Has professors that can't speak English properly at a Canadian institution of higher learning in this day and age. Aesthetically the campus has gotten better over the years, but that doesn't matter in a place where education comes first. Also if you want a job don't come here as I have many friends still struggling to find even basic work, it's better to just to a polytechnic school instead. It's cheaper and you can find work relatively quickly.

Hafia Khafia

2nd year, not the best campus based on looks but we do have a new science building on the way and the Pan Am sports center is AMAZING! All my profs have been really nice and helpful. My grades are great so far and made many friends. Hoping it stays that way for the years to come.

Bunty Scrungus

Still have to pay for parking during a pandemic on a construction site for the school, open the gates for essential workers this is ridiculous.

Synthia S

Offers some great co-op experiences that other campuses don't have. I didn't study in this campus. It is largely multicultural here.

Jack Catal

OK place to study. No cheap healthy food options but there is a La Prep on campus. The library is pretty large but it does get crowded quickly and places near outlets on campus are nearly always taken. Other than that class sizes are manageable and it's a beautiful campus to study on. The professors are overall great to talk to and very responsive to individuals during class and office hours.

Muhammad Kashif Saif (Bobby)

My daughter is graduating from here

Ryan Deveau

Racoon had entire slice of pizza 3/5 for racoon cuteness. 0/5 for school

Ana Carolina Lacerda de Matos

It's a beautiful place.

Levi Liao

Great place to study and engage in the local community.

Riaz hossain

Most buildings have no service. The new building is freezing cold durring the winter.... Centennial is better

SL H

Third yr student here and still trying (fighting sometimes) with others to secure a studying space on campus. Library is WAY TOO SMALL for the school population of more then 10000 students. Cafeteria can do better - food services are the worst here, menus have been unchanging for past decades. Optical, drug stores and Canada post service should be included where you have so many people to serve. Teaching quality is almost the same as other campuses where intro courses are overcrowded and marks+assignments are merely done by TAs. Hard to even bond with any profs beyond second year (forget about recommendation letters unless you do a D level or obtain research/ta/fsg position with the prof). In conclusion, it is the administrative issue that can be addressed by innovative (true to the schools branding motto) policies and management! I still love UofT and would pick it all over again for its research opportunities, this is where I met so many wonderful people but regrettably the campus facilities are nothing to write home about!

Mitul Shah

Architecture is great, vibe is cool

John Recker

Beautiful trail through mostly natural setting with a river running through it. Well kept trails. Parking at the University is payed parking, but it's free to park in the parkkng lot on old kingston road just south of the university.

Kajan Ravindran

Great university, great place to study.

Anthony Ho

Alright campus, very bland coloured on the inside but small enough to keep be able to bump into people you know!

Arif Mazumder

Campus is calm and quiet compared to downtown.

Mark Ucieklak

Nice campus but really easy to get lost if you're new.

David Tam

Nice campus

Ellen Imamura

They don't say U of Tears for nothing.. but still a good education. I guess..

Billy Z

Better than expected. So far I'm having a good time but there are definitely some flaws.

William L

The architecture is soulless. Compare UTSC with the downtown campus. The BEAUTY of the St. George campus is what sets it apart from the surrounding architecture and marks the building as a place where new ideas emerge. The architecture at UTSC on the other hand will not increase in value in 100 years. It will depreciate faster than a 2010 Chevy Equinox leaving the dealership.

anqi xing

????????????????wish me good luck for finals

Stephen Chen

The trail leading the the creek is absolutely stunning! The buildings are modern. Looks like a perfect place for higher education!

Marie Lopez

They have space for public parking, they made it easy for me to get to where I needed to go, and they were well organized

Rick Gervais

Great campus, but I believe free parking for construction workers while working on the new project would be greatly appreciated. Regards Rick

Brent Duguid

Symbolizes the future of Scarborough. The world class Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre, substantial investment in campus infrastructure and beautiful valleylands are a hidden gem

Jerry West

An okay School, but an unusually high number of pudendas running around. Proceed at your own risk

Jun Zheng

Awesome school, currently doing the Comp Sci program. It is in the middle of nowhere. But very quiet, nice place to study. You can choose st.george courses as well, if that is what you want to do.

Joel Mangunatmodjo

I got robbed on campus. Following up with campus police and Toronto police currently. Suspect has not been caught yet

Vito Sanaj

going to paint there tomorrow lol upgrade it

Jimmy Chung

You can walk or bike from the campus to Morniingside Park along a beautiful trail. However, watch out for bikes !!

Jim Collins

It's UofT, even if it's in Scarborough. What's not to like about it??? I'll tell you. It's the bus loop. Some of the people "waiting" for the bus (mostly Durham bus), look like high school drop-outs or as if they go to college. It sucks but UTSC is located near Malvern. Hence, it loses the feel of a university. They should relocate UTSC to a more affluent area.

Jenny Hon

Great university with a student-focused attitude. The environment is very friendly and staffs and faculty are knowledgeable and well-informed. If you are thinking of applying, I would highly recommend applying to the co-op program to gain work-related experience that will help you land a job after you graduate. Even if you do not pursue a co-op program, there are tons of employment and volunteer experience available around campus that you can get involved in and with a smaller student population, you face less competition for these positions than a larger-size campus like UTSG

崔鲁卡

nice view, good location, enough place for studying

Bill Clinton Darkoh

It's very cool at U of T

Cat W

Beautiful campus even a small farmer's market Wednesday afternoons. There is a great walkway into the valley that is even accessible to wheelchairs. Noted Dec 2 2020, there is a covid 19 testing center here now.

Anwar Abdo

Still trying to get in

Chessing ton

Beautiful campus, especially during the spring for Sakura blossoms. Expensive parking. Most lots $10 flat rate M-F any time, any duration before 5pm.

Arif Choudhury

Awesome

Aster Bonfire

The billing and invoice system for students is opaque and extremely difficult to understand. It makes you think the university is hiding behind a complicated and opaque system so you don't understand how much how much you will pay for your degree. I wish they would do a better job at billing and invoicing. Starbucks does a better job to be honest. Food on campus is horrible and there is a lack of study spaces. I would assume food and a good library would be basic things.(fyi i will end up paying $200,000 over four years for my degree) It boggles my mind.

Guy Inguelph

first of all thank you for letting me torrent 500 gbs of movies there on a guest account. second why is everyone brown-black-tan like myself in the photos for advertising at u of t toronto its white-asian marketing very instresting.
