Im still not 100% sure on engineering, last year i was set on civil engineering but took a year off and changed my mind too mechanical as it was more broad.

I have accepted this program from seneca college in Toronto and was wondering what other engineers/professionals think of the program?

I went to the campus and took a tour, spoke with the professor (his business card addresses him as a CET) he recommended to take this program for 3 years than do online for the last 2 years at a engineering university (u of t exc)

If you were accepted into U of T, I would advise going there instead.
