A post-secondary institution in Toronto where people go to get a piece of paper that is supposed to earn them a tiny bit of prestige.

Pros: Some nice architecture, pretty flexible due dates (in the humanities at least), central location, profs usually know what they're talking about, huge ass libraries.

Cons: Some ugly-as-shit buildings, elitist/bitchy classmates (who also come with a hint of classism), nonexistent social scene.

Neutral: Profs mark a bit harder compared to other institutions, but with loose due dates it doesn't actually make a difference.

StudentA: Where are you going next year?

StudentB: I'm going to the University of Toronto! So prestigious, eh?

StudentA: Well, I'm going to "insert Ivy League here", so suck it.

StudentB: T.T

1. Best known as the Harvard of Canada and a member of the "Canadian Ivey Leagues", known for its academic prowess.

2. The first university in the world to maximize profits by accepting even those students it would normally reject through periperal second-rate campuses in Scarborough and Mississauga.

3. Home to the nation's greatest masochists who slave away sleep deprived and stress -ridden for mediocre grades while their peers drink booze and party at other universities, only to discover upon graduation that none of it mattered.
University of Toronto student: OMG WTF that guy from Ryerson got the job! I spent 4 years being a no-life, phoning my professors every weekend asking for research positions during the summer, worked my ass off, graduated with a 3.5 gpa and I still didn't get the job.

Ryerson kid: Dude, I showed up to class and got a 4.0.

The next best thing to higher learning.

"Hey, are you going to university this year?"

"No. I'm going to the University of Toronto."

An academically centred private high school in Canada (Grade 7 to 12). Has the advantage of not having child molesters under their payroll (Upper Canada College!). Regularly wins in everything besides sports (exempting girls sports, and swimming).
Contains four houses: Althouse, Cody, Crawford, Lewis. These houses contain roughly one fourth of the school each.
It also has the advantage of MPGC, the greatest club ever. Why? Well, you can play computer games.

Alex Ling is so damn hot.

Nerdy school where you're either again, brown, and rarely white or black. Basically university for teens. You're either hella smart and overly involved or a dumb fuck who doesn't know why you're there.
Oh you go to university of toronto schools, that sucks

A school for nerds who are depressed, stressed, and have an unhealthy obsession with bubble tea. If you go to UTS: don’t.
Oh you go to University of Toronto Schools, that’s unfortunate.
