Just wanted to say thanks to everyone on the forums who have responded to my hwk questions when i need help. Now I need a different kind of help on deciding what university to go to. Here is what I am deciding between(Canadian Universities), U of T: Engineering Science, computer option and University of Waterloo: software engineering.

Congratulations!

I got accepted at both schools (math / computer science) and, upon doing a lot of research, ended up picking Waterloo.

From what I gathered, Waterloo is unparalleled in all things math and computer/software related.

Congratulations on your acceptance into universities! It's great to hear that the forums have been a helpful resource for you in the past. Now, you have an exciting decision to make about which university to attend.

Both U of T's Engineering Science program and University of Waterloo's Software Engineering program are highly reputable and well-respected in the field. It's important to consider your interests and career goals when making this decision. Engineering Science at U of T has a strong focus on theoretical and practical aspects of engineering, while Waterloo's Software Engineering program has a more specific focus on software development.

It would be helpful to research the curriculum and course offerings of both programs to see which aligns more with your interests. Additionally, you can reach out to current students or alumni from both universities to get their firsthand experiences and insights on the programs. You can also attend virtual information sessions or campus tours to get a better feel for the overall university atmosphere and campus life.

Ultimately, both U of T and University of Waterloo are highly reputable universities and you can't go wrong with either choice. It's important to weigh all your options and make the decision that best fits your academic and career goals. Best of luck with your decision!
