Turn down UofT for UBC ?

[CAguy]

Hello all, Should I turn down UofT for UBC if the research at UBC fits me a bit more than UofT ? (Both fully funded MSc in ECE)

Decisions are based on a large number of factors, so you should consider everything important to you and see which schools offers more. Research fit is certainly a big factor though! 

If everything else is the same and this is the only difference, then definitely choose the better fit. I personally would also choose UBC for many other reasons, such as being in a much warmer place
