Well, I'm probably going to apply to a bunch but I want to see what people's opinions are...
I'm planning on applying to:
Waterloo - Software Engineering (on the backup on the AIF, I will put Computer Science)
UofT - Computer Science
Queen's - Computing
A few questions that I am struggling with:
- Are there any other good schools in Canada to apply to for CS?
- What would be the rankings in terms of level of difficulty for getting into the listed undergrad programs?
- Does anyone know how the colleges for UofT St.George rank in regards to CS?
- Would I have better chances of getting a job upon graduating with a S.E. degree versus C.S. degree?
- Would it be better to go straight into the work force upon graduating after 4 - 5 years undergrad, or would it be a smarter choice to go into grad studies? If so, any recommendations for grad studies?
Thanks in advance people! Help is GREATLY appreciated

), but the requirements to enter a major/specialist is dependent on which 'branch' of computer science you want to pursue. Specialists are generally more competitive since they only accept a limited amount of students (ex: AI) while the basic major doesn't have any size limit, so as long as you achieve the basic marks in your pre-requisite courses, you'll most likely be accepted. Also not sure if you know this, but even though you apply for a specific program at UFT, you won't be admitted into the program until you achieve the required pre-reqs after about a year or so, after entering UFT (which I believe is the case for CS). People always say that UFT is easy to get into, but hard to stay in.
Another good thing is the program's PEY program which is great for your resume and for taking a legit reason to leave school for a year
