4. Think About the City You will Call Home
Remember, you’re not just choosing a university.
You are choosing a place where you will likely spend several years.
Ask yourself:
1. Is the city safe?
2. Is public transportation reliable?
3. Are part-time work opportunities available?
4. Is there an active international student community?
5. Does the climate suit you?
Some students love the energy of large cities like Toronto or Vancouver, while others thrive in smaller, quieter communities where living costs are lower.
There is not a right or wrong answer, only what’s right for you.
