Definitely agree with all the advantages you describe. There's no reason to not consider UToronto, McGill, Waterloo, UBC, etc except perhaps that they don't use common app (though if I recall the application process was supposed to be much easier). >it's huge. 40k kids. And they are all the top kids. Canada builds big schools and just gets shit done If you have a kid who wants more of a small school vibe I think that's also possible. I didn't go, but UToronto does residential colleges more like Oxbridge, I'd imagine that helps greatly w/ encouraging socializing.

Might check out UToronto, thanks. We are east coasters and honestly also love the vibe of Montreal. So it is a wonderful school - surprised it is not more overrun by Americans (who represent less than half the internationals here.) Drinking age of 18, cheap cost of living, and hip areas like Plateau make it an awesome choice. Applications could NOT be easier. Send in transcript and SAT. Done. (And if you are well above the cutoffs from last year, KNOW you will be accepted. No drama.)
