Does anyone know of a website where i find a roommate in toronto? I am looking at getting a two bedroom apartment; although i would prefer single, it is very expensive! Thanks again!

Yea i guess i was using downtown loosely.... traditionally i think downtown is like from bloor to lake ont (north-south) and from don river to bathurst (east-west). I am def going to look around at different areas! What do people think is an acceptable commute to go into school everyday? I'm thinking max a 20 subway ride (for me at least) if you live close to the subway line. The grad house looks very appealing b/c it's def cheaper than other places but it reminds me too much of a glorified undergrad rez, like the suite style ones... still the pictures look very nice tho. Thanks again for the tips everyone... each piece of info will make my house hunting in the summer much easier!

Thanks for the tips! I will be working/studying in the college street area close to King's Circle...Sick Kids area; i was thinking of getting a place in this area but i am also considering other areas and just commuting via subway!

Hey this thread hasnt had activity in a while..... Just wanted to say thanks everyone for the good tips on where to live, etc. I'm heading to Toronto in September for MSc program so i'll be getting a place downtown!!!! I can't wait; no more boring small city stuff for me! Does anyone know my chances of getting an apartment where the lease starts in Aug or Sept? I want to save money this summer and not have to pay rent like i did during undergrad! Thanks a mil!

What's the deal with life sciences admissions at UofT for masters??? I applied to the departments of molecular genetics and lab med and pathbio.... i haven't heard from lab med yet, but i have had an interview with molecular genetics. Has anyone heard anything from other departments?
