Welcome to CBS

How to Choose the Right College or University

Ask yourself what’s important to you: Where do you want to be? Who you want to become? Then you can figure out what types of schools will allow you to reach your goals

Which of these aspects are things you feel you must have to be comfortable at a college? Which things are you flexible on?: Size Location Distance from home Available majors and classes Housing options Makeup of the student body Available extracurricular activities Campus atmosphere

Think about what you want to accomplish in college. Do you want to train for a specific job or get a wide-ranging education? If you have a major in mind, are the schools you’re considering strong in that area?

Keep an Open Mind Challenge your assumptions about what will work for you. Talk to people who know you. Don’t limit your search.

Do Your Homework Once you have a list of schools Talk to your teachers Check out school student blogs, if available Contact admission officials Ask admission officials to recommend current students or recent graduates to talk to Visiting college campuses or visit as many international university fairs

Foundation Year Programs The International Foundation Program (IFP) is a unique offering that combines conditional acceptance to the University of Toronto with intensive English language instruction and for-credit courses. The IFP is available to academically qualified international students whose English fluency scores (TOEFL/SAT) do not meet the University of Toronto’s direct entrance requirements.

Foundation Year Programs Successful completion of the IFP guarantees admission to the Faculty of Arts & Science, Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering, the John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape & Design, or the Faculty of Music with academic credit towards your undergraduate degree.
