THE COLLEGES
St. George Campus
College System
The college system dates back to the earliest days of the
University of Toronto and remains one of the university’s
most distinctive features today. Each of the seven colleges
on the St. George campus is a unique community of
scholars and students within the Faculty of Arts & Science.
Every Arts & Science student is a member of a college.
Whether you live in residence or commute to campus,
your college is like a familiar neighbourhood, bringing you
together with people you may know for a lifetime.
Each college has its own culture and provides core
services for their students. Many students discover that
their college is one of the most important factors in their
university experience.
It is important to remember that whichever college
you choose, you will have access to all courses and
programs offered in the Faculty of Arts & Science.
College affiliation does not restrict academic choices.
