Q. Is the transit system understandable, safe and reliable? What will it cost me?

A. The TTC is a quick, convenient and safe way to get around Toronto.  You may feel intimidated at the first, but you will be assisted at the beginning of September during Orientation and then within no time you will be able to go all around the city.

We suggest keeping a Ride Guide with you at all times so you know where you’re going or in case of emergency. You’ll receive a Ride Guide in your Information Packet on Orientation Day.

For cost and more information, visit the TTC website.

Q. What activities are there at the school?

A. Orientation Days for the 1st years, fall and winter retreats, fooseball tournaments, Taste of the Nations luncheon, Christmas socials, paintball, guys/girls nights, pancake lunches, class parties.  Lots of fun talks in the lounge at the school, in between classes, over lunch and after classes. Trips to local restaurants, special activities, sports events and concerts in and around the Toronto area or in area churches with friends.

Q. How often should I expect to be at the school for classes? How much of my time will be spent on homework?

A. If you’re a full time student you can expect to be at the school at least 3-4 days a week.  Part time students may only be at the school 1-2 days a week.

The rule of thumb for homework is this: for every one hour you spend in class, you should expect to spend about two hours doing homework.  Get started on assignments and readings right away. If you don’t, you will get bogged down towards the end of the semester. Good time management is essential. Good study habits are important as well. Don’t be afraid to ask for help from fellow students, faculty, the librarian and the Academic Success Centre.

Q. How do I connect with a church and mentor?

A. E-mail: or  
College Office: (416) 482-2224
College Fax: (416) 482-7004
Ask other students for their advice.

Q. Am I able to access computers at the school? Should I buy a personal computer or a laptop?

A.  You can use the computers in the school’s computer lab. Once you’ve registered as a student, you will receive a D2L username and password to be used at the school.  (You’ll also get an email account.)  On average, most of our students have laptops and find these most beneficial for taking notes. If you don’t want to carry around a laptop and you can keep neat and tidy notes, stick with a desktop.

Q.  Is there anyone I can talk to throughout the year about school/mentoring/life in Toronto/problems?

A.  There are plenty people around the school to talk with; you’ll find staff and faculty members are ready to talk with you.  More specifically, the guys’ RA, Derek Osborne (), and the girls’ RA, Bethany Tozer (), are more than willing to help—that’s what they are here for.  And for more wise advice, Sue James () is the woman to see!

Q.  Can I work at all while I’m at the school?

A.  The answer depends on your workload and what you can handle. Many of our students have part time jobs and work on the weekends. Others do not have a job so they can focus on their studies throughout the semester. This is a time management question.

Q.  When does the school have Chapel?

A.  Chapel is held every Tuesday morning at 10:00 am, following the first half of class time.
