Hello, I am applying to Clinical PhD programs in Toronto and very nervous about the cost of living there. I would be living alone and applying to some of the tricouncil grants but they seem to be maximum 20k. Would student loans, being a TA, and a professional line of credit be enough to live off in Toronto??

Hello - I am very interested in pursing pediatric neuropsychology at SickKids in Toronto. Therefore, I am only applying to the clinical programs in Toronto so I can hopefully do my internships there. I know York is the only program with a specific neuropsych stream but the others can still offer it (apparently). My questions are: 1. Any general advice for the 3 Toronto schools? Are any better than others? 2. I am nervous about the funding (SSHRC would only be 20k and that seems to be the highest option) but how else would I afford to live in Toronto? 3. Most schools want me to apply at the MA level even though I already have a MSc and years of research experience. I am okay with doing this if it means a better chance of getting in and getting funding but hoping for some advice here too. 4. Because I want to be a pediatric neuropsychologist - is there any other schools in Canada you would recommend instead? Any help is greatly appreciated!
