Alright, so I have been accepted to the following for computer Science: UfT(non-coop), Carleton(coop), Brock(coop). I'm really stuck on my decision here, it b/w BRock and Carleton, UfT is too big these days. Im looking for some decent answers and reasons as to which would be best? Thanks in advance

I think the reasons for which would be "best" is largely subjective to what qualities you consider to be important.

Also, which UofT campus?

Is it possible to transition into a co-op program at UofT after a semester/year?

If your only problem with UofT is that it's too big these days, I think you should visit each campus and re-evaluate that idea. I haven't been to any of the three campuses you listed, but I'd wager the Scarborough UofT campus is smaller than both Brock and Carleton.

With Carleton, you have access to their game development program, which may also interest you.

I haven't really heard anything about CS at Brock.

Brock -- http://compsci.ca/blog/computer-science-at-brock-university/

Carleton is rather small, if you have questions, feel free to e-mail/PM me, and I will gladly answer them.

Carleton is seeming more promising than Brock, more streams to choose from after the first year.
