JustineUniversité Paris Dauphine - PSL → University of Toronto · Autunno 2025“I visited Niagara Falls, a MUST DO, it is wonderful (only 2hours from Toronto, $30-40 taking the bus). I also visited Vancouver, a 5hours flights as it is the other end of the country, but I recommend it (ocean, bordered by the mountains...). I did not do it, but also try going to Banff National Park for some mind blowing views. I visited Ottawa, which is a 5hours trip taking the bus (don't take the train, they are always late, it is more expensive and takes as long). It is a beautiful city, with many parks. Then I went to the US (Chicago, NYC and Washington DC), you can find flights for no more than $300 the whole trip, and it is the perfect occasion to visit your dream city.
Also, if you decide to go on a trip, try out Hostels, they are cheaper than hotels and Airbnbs and usually very convenient (downtown, full of young people...).”

CamilleIESEG School of Management → York University · Autunno 2025“Making close friends with Canadian students at York can be a bit challenging, so we mostly spent time with French students from IESEG or other international schools. The social life felt different from France, and it took us some time to find parties and clubs we really enjoyed.
I would recommend trying a frat party at the beginning of the semester (around September), as it’s a good way to experience student life. The Madison was great, with a lot of young students and internationals, and we also went often to Momentos. For clubs, the most well-known ones are on King Street. For a drink or dinner with an amazing view, Kost is definitely worth it.”

JoelIE University → York University · Primavera 2025“Conflict and Negotiations, very good class, good information useful in everyday life, good teacher, workload was on the heavier side but satisfying and worth it. Entertainment marketing, good teacher, rather simple, low work load. Creating capitalism, great teacher, good discussions, must be open to have class discussions to make the most of the learning, work load was management and very autonomous. Personal Finance, great teacher, information is relevant to everyday life, work load was fair. ”

MathildeIÉSEG School of Management → Toronto Metropolitan University · Primavera 2026“The building was really good, I was in the ice condos but I would recommend renting by Airbnb, I rented by Student.com and the room was not a real room. However, I had friends that rented by Airbnb in the same building and they had a really good apartment and rooms”
