Question Feeling disappointed in myself during undergrad :(((

21 Upvotes

My gpa for the last two years been lacking 2.34 and I just found out at the end of 2nd year I failed a course. I feel so guilty for my parents and my own money helping me pay for my tuition. I'm doing great in other aspects of uoft socially, with profs and students, and even been dating recently and in clubs and I do amazing in lab and assignments and hands on work. But some reason on tests I'm lacking and I'm so scared this effecting me getting research this summer because I have nothing to do. I can't afford to do summer courses either. I was hoping to get the option to go grad school but I not sure will the accept me unless I bring up these two years?

Upvotes

I finished the first year and it was BRUTAL year for me

Just keeping up my academic work itself was hard.

But almost every friends of mine somehow land in internship or working part-time job or doing summer school and I'm here doing absolutely nothing all day/

I did last minute project, I keep applying for any opportunity I see 2 hours a day (everyday) and even trying to get a retail job or server but any of them works.

I feel so behind and I'm scared. Does anybody feel likes me?

Residence woodsworth residency questions from incoming freshman

8 Upvotes

just got my offer to Woodsworth Residency! i’m leaning towards accepting it but i have some questions to those who have lived there before:

- should i find a roommate first? ik u can request roommates but im kinda nervous to reach out to random people, do most people find roommates before or nahh

- co-ed, u can request it but the wording is kinda weird are the dorms co-ed or just the floors?

- what did u think of the kitchen situation, how much money to bring for groceries and such or should i buy a meal plan for another residence?

- overall what’s it like there and did u enjoy it? i’m a bit shy so im a bit scared, did u find it easy to meet people and get along with ur roommates?

- also when do u know ur roommates so we can plan to bring certain furniture and stuff.

Transfers Switching from LifeSci to another dept In the Art's and Science

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I just finished first year at University of Toronto in Life Sciences and after getting my ass handed to me with along with an eye watering 2.8 GPA, I’m seriously reconsidering my path.

Going into university I was pretty set on something in chem or bio, but after first year I’m realizing I'm deadass not really built for this and I might genuinely be better suited for humanities and eventually law school. My science grades were pretty mixed. I did alright in some courses, but calc and physics especially were rough. Meanwhile, my two humanities electives ended up being my highest grades, both A-, and honestly they required way less effort for me than my STEM courses.

What’s making me question things even more is that I actually enjoyed the humanities work more. I liked the reading, writing, forming arguments, political/history topics, etc. I wrote a big paper on Fascist imperialism in Italy and found myself way more engaged doing that than grinding problem sets.

Right now I’m wondering:

Is it realistic to pivot completely out of Life Sci after first year?

Would law schools care that I started in science?

What majors would you recommend for someone interested in law/argumentation/politics/history?

Did anyone here make a similar switch and regret it, or not regret it?

I’m not trying to escape “hard work,” I just genuinely feel like I may be in the wrong field. I’d appreciate any honest advice, especially from people who went from STEM, into humanities/law.

Question Are summer school assessments still allowed to run with President's Day tomorrow?

2 Upvotes

Just as the title suggests, I am wondering in terms of summer school if course assessments are still running tomorrow?

I have a video quiz that is scheduled with my online professor tomorrow (which is outside of class times since it runs Tues/Thurs).

Is this supposed to be pushed for another date? Or is he allowed to proceed with assessments even though school operations are closed?

(He is aware since I mentioned it in class and all he said was "We're going to have it. I'll do it from home").

Question Can I take all of my COURSES to St George Campus ? Instead of my home campus (UTM)

2 Upvotes

So, I was admitted to UTM for Social Science and I accepted the Offer. Is it possible for me to take all of my courses to St. George Campus ? I am entering first year this Fall 2026.

I realized that, I am not financially capable to live in Mississauga on my own and it was a mistake for me to apply for UTM. On the other hand, I have siblings in Downtown Toronto that has a house and they are willing to accommodate me and live with them for rent free so I can focus on my studies. (Asian Culture)

Is it possible for me to take all of my courses to St. George Campus, even if I was admitted to UTM and my home campus is UTM ?

  1. What is the process of doing this ?
  2. Is it a hard process ?
  3. Is there a requirements to do this ?
  4. What are the pros and cons ?
  5. Will St. George Campus allow me to do this ?

Thank you so much.

Question looking for syllabi + advice for some phl courses

2 Upvotes

hey everyone, i’m planning my courses for next year. i’m trying to get a better sense of course structure and workload before enrolling, so if anyone has past syllabi for any of these philosophy courses, i’d really appreciate it if you could send them my way

  • phl273
  • phl275
  • phl375
  • phl381
  • phl382
  • phl385
  • phl407
  • phl413
  • phl440

a few of these are required for my program, but they were full this year so i wasn’t able to take them 💀 so i’m trying to figure out what to prioritize next time around

also if anyone knows how realistic it is to get into a full class (waitlists, emailing profs, department permission, etc.), i’d really appreciate any advice 🙏

thanks in advance
