998.0. "Schools in Toronto area" by UHUH::SHAMIM () Tue Jul 02 1996 19:05

    
    I am looking for information on schools (colleges/universities) in
    Toronto area. My niece is planning to start her undergraduate studies
    in January and would like to go school in Toronto area (since her
    parents are re-locating there).
    
    
    I looked on the WEB and found SCHOOLFINDER, but it only lets me search
    for colleges/universities by subject. There is no location or language 
    index. My main interest is in finding schools in this area. Her general
    interest is in Biological sciences leading towards pre-med.
    
    Also, I presume that canadian system must also require something like 
    SAT just like US. What is it called ??  Where can I get information on 
    that ?? 
    
    Would greatly appreciate any help, pointers in this matter.
    
    thanks

    you can try searching for 
    
    	YORK UNIVERSITY
    	UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO (probably your best bet for pre-med)
    	RYERSON
    
    As for colleges, you can try searching the web for
    
    	SENECA
    	CENTENNIAL
    	HUMBER COLLEGE
    
    Not sure what the requirements are for admittance testing of foreign
    students, but I know tuition is unsubsidized (approx $10k/year plus
    living exp.)
    
    There are other universities *near* Toronto, that you may wish to
    investigate such as WESTERN, MCMASTER, WILFRID LAURIER, WATERLOO.
    
    Good Luck
