Toronto Metropolitan University

TMU offers residence and housing guidance, but a single current housing price is not universal because room type, lease term and neighbourhood change. Many students consider shared off-campus housing in the downtown core or along TTC routes; deposits, utilities, food and transit must be added to the rent. Residence and private housing availability are not guaranteed by admission. Students Traffic can help compare a realistic pre-arrival housing budget and commute plan before an application is submitted.

TMU provides applicant and international-student services, academic advising, student success support and faculty-level resources. Engineering students can use the First Year Engineering Office for orientation, tutoring, study groups and academic planning, while programme pages direct applicants to current requirements, application and fee information. The international student team helps with arrival and study-related guidance. Students should still confirm their own document, language, financial and immigration requirements for the selected intake.

York University

York offers residence at Keele Campus and publishes an 8-month residence estimate of CAD 9,000–13,000. Its 2026–27 living-cost guidance estimates food or a meal plan at CAD 4,350–8,000 in residence, personal expenses at CAD 4,200 and health and dental care at CAD 359 for the stated domestic estimate; international students should confirm the applicable health-plan amount, which York lists separately. Off-campus housing is a separate Toronto-area budget and availability is not guaranteed.
