- Hey everyone! Today I'm sharing a highly requested video- my university/college experience at the University of Toronto. For those of you who are new here, I got my business degree through the Rotman Commerce undergraduate program at UofT's St.George (downtown) campus. In this video I share my journey throughout the program, and also give you guys an update as to what my next steps are (and how I'm dealing with this major life change). I plan to keep this discussion going these next few weeks/months, so let me know in the comments below if you've recently graduated. I'd also love to know what last bits of student content you'd like to see this summer? :) Enjoy xo

UofT definitely is no joke congrats on finishing! I just completed my first year at Scarborough campus and transferring to St.George for fall 2019 :)))
Thank-you !! Oh yay, very fun 🎉 st.george is a beautiful campus !
hey! if you don't mind could you share the reason why you want to transfer from UTSC to UTSG? I am deciding between two business programs in the two respective campuses, please help me out!
@@sonexocarat1059 well when I first applied to uoft I applied for the criminology program downtown but didn't receive admission there. They sent me a counter offer basically to attend Scarborough campus seeing that first-year courses for my desired program are very basic (SOCA101 etc.) so essentially I could have taken them at either campus. But now entering the second year the course becomes more specialized thus why I'm going through the process of transferring.
Cassie Wood I see! Thanks and im glad you’re able to transfer :) how did you like (or not like lol) utsc..?
@@sonexocarat1059 utsc is extremely small and is a pretty campus at face value but there is hardly any good places to study and the food on campus is very limited. The utsc campus made me feel as though I never left high school for many reasons. I'd suggest applying downtown if you want a better uni experience!
An education is never a waste of time. I completed my law degree at Dalhousie University and practiced law for a couple of years. Now I am a comedian/broadcaster/writer. My education is of use to me all the time.

Thank you for this video. My mom has been giving me a hard time because I decided that I didn't want to go back for my Master's and because I decided I'm moving out in July...and it's been really hard. I'm currently stressed about the whole job hunting while also being constantly told that I am making a mistake. So, I really needed this encouragement today. You have inspired me in so many ways. I bullet journal now, and I made it through college with help from your videos/encouragement. Thank you, Caitlin.
❤️❤️❤️ it’s so tough when you don’t have that support at home, but know that making the decisions you want to make will leave you with less regrets in the future. When it comes to schooling, you have to have the desire within you to do it (otherwise your experience will probably be shitty)...it’s okay for that not to be the path for you. And THANK-YOU for this message! It’s amazing to know these videos help you out in some way....change is really hard but I’m wishing you lots of luck with moving out and with job hunting 💕😘
such a shame wasting money on education like you did.
I just finished my first year at the University of Toronto, and man was it wild! The stress and the breakdowns were real. Knowing that these experiences are shared with others is really comforting though. But I met some of my best friends on residence, and living in the Toronto area has been liberating because I came from a small town. So glad this video came up in my recommendations.
Really Jessika same I just finished my first year
At uoft
Hey...could u please tell me what are the minimum grades one needs to achieve to enter in UofT
@@arnan.k4297 it depends on the program you are trying to get into but most of the time its 70%, if your program is competitive then it even could be like 85%
but everyone needs to have 70 % English
if your doing a math program like accounting you need 70% in math and same goes for the sciences
Areej Fatima Ghafoor tysm😇
I did not have anything figured out when I graduated from undergrad. I tried to apply for a graduate degree and didn't get accepted. So then I just found a job. I needed the break from school despite many people trying to push me towards a graduate degree, but I feel like if you go for a graduate degree or MBA or PHD, you really have to WANT it and I didn't. So it took me 6 years after graduating with my undergrad that I finally knew what I wanted for an MBA and found a university that had what I wanted and could do it online. I'm now 1 year into my MBA. I love my program more than my undergrad and really hoping that it will bring me to the job I desire.
Alicia K so great! I have the same plan :)!
What is your desired job at the end of MBA?
@@brigittabottlik7042 I am doing a MBA with a concentration in business analytics so hoping to get a job as a data scientist.
probably one of your best videos imo. editing on point, b-rolls, chat, everything. felt like listening to a friend ❤️
Oh what a huge compliment, thank-you so much Isabela ! Glad you loved it ❤️😍

Would LOVE, LOVE if you would do a book club. Maybe an entrepreneur book club including topics like time management, self improvement, customer service, etc. Switch it up with fiction. I am game for anything!
Ohhhhh a great idea !! Would love to see how much interest there’d be in this 😍🙌❤️
@@caitlinmariedasilva That would be sooooo great! I am a RC 2023er and has been watching your videos since I was 16 ❤️

You have been a role model for me in terms of school/student life. This July I'm going to take my university entry test and I'm very grateful that there are so many people like you who like to share their personal journey throughout the years because you inspire like a lot of us.
So thank you so much Caitlin for you and your videos. I'll be here waiting for more of them💕
I just finished my fourth year at UTM and I can relate to everything in this vid 😭 I hope CZcams works out for you 💯

This is why I keep coming back to watch your videos, they are so relatable since I was also an A student then when college hit me I became an average student. I can’t wait to see what you do next ☺️
I’m also graduating this month and I second everything you said! Especially about change. The bad feelings that come with new things are temporary and the change is GOOD.
I totally agree with everything you said! I'm graduating UofT this June. Best of luck!
All this stuff is so relevant. These feelings come up even when you switch jobs and people will always ask what's next.
I'm excited about your new journey!! I feel like we're going to get to know you more now and I'm really stoked! 🤗
Congratulations on your graduation! As a fellow college student, I’ve enjoyed your videos for so long🥰
Aww thank-you!! 💕😍☺️
I’ve FINALLY CREATED MY UNDERGRAD! Graduating in June from UTSG! It’s been a crazy 4 years, filled with plenty of up and down emotions and growth! I have no idea what I’m gonna do next, but this video and hearing about your uni experience is so comforting! Love your channel ❤️❤️❤️
Angel48278 congrats!
Congrats! In my final year at school people always used the example of 'in the real world....' the truth is that school is more stressful and jam packed then 'real life'. Can't wait to see what you do next!
it's been more than 6 years since my convocation on June 2013 and now I am preparing applications for my MBA. A lot of things happened since. I myself had a miserable time as a student(I would call it miserable especialliy because of our school's way of maintaing its academic reputation), although I had definitely great time as a person. For sure, you never know what's gonna happen and how you are gonna end up. Finding what one really wants to do is hard. Great to share similar memories and experiences with pretty much everyone who went to U of T, writing comments here! Congrats on your convocation!
I know what you mean about burning out toward the end, I just graduated for the 3rd time (a continuing education certificate, so not an intense undergrad program), and I
can see my marks going lower and lower toward the end of the program.
Looking forward to seeing your journey transitioning from student to full-time CZcamsr. :)

“I had a stats course and an economics course that were the devil.” Okay, at least I’m mentally prepared now. I really appreciate how you explain your experience in every year.
Especially the part where you explained first year calmed me a lot.
I told myself a year off after finishing my undergrad and it was the best decision ever. I was fortunate to have a full time job while in school so I stayed with it. I applied for a new position in my field of study and that took a year to get into. Now I am planning to continue school so I can continue in my field. For everyone out there trying to figure it out my best advice is : TAKE A BREAK. let yourself fully acknowledge and accept that school is over (at least for now if that’s what your choose). College becomes your focus for so long that it can take a while to let it go.
I remember you attending as a guest speaker in one of our marketing (rsm250) lectures, was very inspired by your work-life balance, wish you the best of luck for life after university! And wish me the best of luck for my second year too!!:)
Thank you so much for this video. I’m a senior undergraduate and plan on applying to U of T for graduate school for clinical psychology. However, I’m so stressed because I’m from the States, need to take the GRE and etc. I’m nervous also because of the fact that school is competitive and I have no research experience like most programs want. But overall hearing your experience with graduating and not pursuing a masters or etc makes things a little easier.
I feel so emotional seeing you come to the end of university and it definitely resonated with me about feeling a bit blue when major life events occur too. Good luck with everything you have planned post-uni - I'm so excited for you!
Thank-you so much 😍❤️!! I’m emotional about it too haha !
I really loved this video because next year I'm graduating and I'm really nervous about not knowing what's next. So it's really nice to hear your commentary on it all :)
I graduated back in December. Finding a job has been hard (actually impossible so far), but the hardest part has been feeling out of place and being uncertain about what’s next. For the first couple of months I was thrilled to be done! Now that a semester has passed since I’ve graduated it feels even more real that I’m not going back and really have to figure this life thing out.
A late congrats on graduating 🎉 and yeah, I have friends who are on that hunt right now and it’s not all puppies and rainbows ...sending lots of good luck your way that you’ll find something soon ❤️ I’m sure I’ll be in that same “I need to figure life out” boat in the next year when everything sets in 😅
Hi Caitlin, huge congrats on finishing your degree! I'm 5 days (and 2 horrible exams!) away from finishing my 4 years at uni, so this video came at a really good time for me, some much needed motivation at the end of my studies :) xx
Amazing! Early congratulations 🎉🎉 good luck on those last finals !
Thank you for sharing your experience! It's been 3 years since I graduated and it was bittersweet but with time everything falls to place. I really love your content and I'm cheering for you. I can't wait to see what's next for you 💗✨
Same it's been 3 yrs but I'm going back for masters this fall ... it's my choice no one told me ...
@@salma31000 Wow! Wish you the best going back to school. I am also thinking about getting my Master... best of luck!
Great video :) I don't remember when I started to watch your videos but there is something in you that makes me still coming back. You're a very interesting pearson and keep doing what you do. I hope that now is the best time for yourself development😊😊😊 I personally would like to see more book and cooking videos. Best wishes from Poland! 😊
Eyyyy also graduating from UofT this June! Congrats and Good luck!
OMG I'm also graduating from UTSG this June! Just subscribed to your channel! I wish you all the best
How was it?
I put off this video until I finished school. Now that I did, I’m diving right into it! I really look up to you because of the past advices you have given in your videos and your awesome personality. You made me realize how important it is to have an online presence. ❤️thank you so much!!
I've been watching you and your videos for so long, and I love you and this channel so much!! Good luck for all the changes you're experiencing and will continue to experience in the future, I'll be rooting for you all along the way :)
This comments means so much....thank-you ❤️
Wooow this actually helped a lot 😭 I just finished my first year at U of T and damn I really feel u when u said that it was hard adjusting to the change. I think I went through a little funk too. It nice to know that there’s other who go through the same experience. Also thanks for the advise and honest response to each question. 😊

I will support your channel ❤️❤️❤️ your still so young don’t worry too much about having to have your whole life planned out
Just finished my 3rd year at UofT and boy it really is tough 😤 but 100% worth it, I love my school!
I'm so glad someone else is actually saying what I've been thinking ever since I graduated. My undergraduate university experience was so miserable and on the outside I was doing pretty good, but I never felt more lost than when I was in university. I was interested in all of my classes, but I kept thinking toward the end (still do, since I'm finishing my MA) "What do I actually want to do?"
EARLY SQUAD. Dudeee, I love your videos. And I'm joining UofT this fall and your videos have been such great aid to my journey.
Yay 🎉🎉 Congratulations !! So excited for you !!
I’m attending Rotman in the fall and this video was so helpful! thank you :)
Hey Juliana, I recently made a video regarding advice for incoming Rotman students if you're interested (;
I’m actually considering UofT Rotman Commerce so was really interesting to watch this and hear about your experiences :)
Happy to hear the video could be helpful! ☺️
This is really cool to hear. I start the last year of my bachelor, next september. I know I want to do a master, I know that but I do not know what i want to do after that. I study literature so what i will be doing is a little more obscure. I am also a learner. If i could study for 5 more years for free, count me in. So this is all really helpful to hear. Thank you for sharing!

I am extremely content that the decision you made is one that makes you happy. I truly hope your CZcams journey goes far! You have a lot of talent to show the world, take over it! 🌎
I’m going into 3rd year this fall and I can truly relate to the competition aspect. I figured to switch to a more ‘palatable’ major that still aligns my interests so I can better find work opportunities, yet I’m still in the process of figuring it all out 😂. Thanks for sharing ur experience, I admire ur determination:)
Omg, you do NOT have enough views, considering how functional and helpful and nice your bujo spreads/tutorials are! I love your editing too!
Thanks for this video, as someone who just finished first year at UofT I really appreciate ur real and honest opinion. It gives me hope that I'll be okay (I experienced the same thing this year- going from 90s to 70s and even 60s). I barely even know what I wanna major in!! Anyways, best of luck :) and thanks for being one of my inspirations to starting a bullet journal!
Yesssssssss ❤️ Congratulations🎁🎀🎉🎂 and yess had been waiting so long for new upload ❤️✌🏻
can you pleaseeeee make a video on your experience at Rotman. im planning on applying next year and it would be sooo helpful. everything from application to the end
The application has changed since I did it and the program was revamped for all the kids admitted after my year, so there’s some differences...I’d definitely be open to filming something if interest is there though :)
@@caitlinmariedasilva I would be very interested!
As a recent U of T graduate, I share most of your feelings! Thank you for this video!
What is the difference between undergraduate and graduate studies? I'm an international student.
Caitlin, I am starting my senior year of college and I am already getting all of those questions since many are telling me to look for applying for graduate school. I admire you for these choices. I have been watching your videos whenever I get the chance between classes and such, and I wish to say that we will support you.
I'm praying all of this change will be well and that you grow and thrive! God bless you ❤️
Following your time in college has been such a privilege because we’re the same year!! Just got my BA in History, and everything you said about the feelings you have when it’s over truly resonated. So excited to see where you go next! And also how your BuJo spreads adjust when you’re not in school anymore (cause I really dunno what to do now! Lol)!
Omg congratulations!! 🎉💕 couldn’t be happier to have you along this journey with me! And haha, it’s definitely going to have more work stuff and probably a lot more journaling elements incorporated into it 🙌✨
Congrats on finishing! I’m currently doing 3rd year of dietetics, but have been at uni for 5 years and still have another 1.5 years to go. At this point I just want to finish my degree and graduate. My biggest challenge though is work placement next year, some at hospitals and some at clinics; it will be a huge challenge well above the challenges of uni. Not looking forward to it!
You got this !! The finish line is in sight haha 🎉🎉 finding work is definitely a tough battle...sending good luck vibes your way that everything will click together ✨
I think by doing CZcams you are effectively practicing your field of study!

Proud of you! And good luck with CZcams I'll continue watching you!
Congrats on fininishing!! I'm starting my first year at UofT next fall and I'm super stressed about it lmao but super glad I found your channel
Iako Patton just finished first year at uoft, don’t worry😊. It’s a great school
I'm starting next fall too lmao
can you tell me what its like please :))) not just academically but socially as well
tati it’s what you make of it. i’ve found that the people who do well are not looking to get good grades, but who want challenge themselves and actually learn. it’s a heavy course load, there’s no denying that. it seems like i hardly have time to breathe sometimes, and for myself, if i ever find myself bored, that’s boredom i should be putting into studying. if you’re coming straight from high school, you’re in for a little bit of a shock. i’m a very shy and introverted person, but i’ve made a lot of friends because i pushed myself to be social. so, look, a lot of people make this school out to be hell, but it’s up to you to put the effort in.
Man i got emotional while watching this video... I will (hopefully) be going to uni next year, and I'm hella scared of what would happen because I'm also planning to go abroad for uni. This video ends up serving as a comfort in some way for me, so thank you for making this. :)
Oh my... this video is great, thank you for it! I can relate to everything as I graduated in February!! Still, need more time to figure out what exactly I wanna do next!! 🤯 Keep my fingers crossed for your fulltime YT works out!
congrats on graduating!! I'm going into my second year at UofT engg and hearing your story is so interesting and inspiring :)) good luck!!
How was it ? (I'm attending this year)
Lu Seal I’m interested in engineering, what’s it like
Congratulations on graduating!! This video really ease my mind a lot❤️❤️❤️I’m in third year Finance at RC and I couldn’t get an internship this summer, which stressed me out so bad and I felt miserable and I’ve never been so scared of the unknown future :( this video is too relatable and I’m sooo glad to see this or else I’ll be sucked into the endless cycle of comparing myself to others and feeling miserable
I think a book club series will be cool haha I’m trying to read a lot of books this summer too
i'm graduating from utsg this june too! congrats on making another milestone and best of luck with everything ahead!

Just a heads up for those of you going into first year at UofT. If you feel that you handle stress badly and may not be able to keep up with the heavy workload, then take only four half credit courses per semester and then do two half credit courses during the summer.
Congratulations on your graduation :)
I went back to college after getting my undergrad at the University of Ottawa, and I'm still learning about myself. I'm going to end up doing another year of schooling before starting my career.
I'm glad you've figured out the right road for you and I can't wait to see what you have in store for us! :)
That’s awesome-I feel like the learning about yourself journey is a lifelong one ❤️ thanks for following along !
This is such a big decision, and i completely agree with you. This is the right time to do it, because you are free from obligations.
I really hope it goes well. Besides the fear, i bet it's also very exciting, having all those ideas bubbling inside of you!
My little advice is to maybe also do social media and brand consulting on the side, as a freelance, to work both sides of the business. Patricia Bright here on youtube has her own channel, her own brand, but also she does consulting for other youtubers and brands, and it brings in another source of income (separate from the fate of her channel) while also creating networking opportunities. It is a lot of work, but we must dream big, am i right?
Im still in my 2nd to last yr high school but this video was still really helpful. CONGRATS on graduating ❤️🎉🎉
Thanks Jess !! Enjoy your time at high school-time flies ! 🙌💕
I'm in my last semester of an MA program and definitely related to lots of this! The forced specialization in grad school has just made me more unsure of what I want to do afterwards but I'm still glad I went! Love your content (and your sense of humor 😂)--congrats on graduating!! 🎉
Omg WAHOO ! Congrats, what a huge accomplishment 🎉🎉🎉 I feel like it’s totally normal to be confused -life in general is confusing haha 🤣 and thank-you so much I appreciate that 💕
Congrats and best of luck with your future. Great video ✌️
Congratulations! You graduated from U of T and you are now alumni! :)
I’m currently in my last year of high school, probably gonna be attending UOFT St.George campus for life science. Watching your video oddly put me at a lot of peace. I’m kinda worried and fearful for how the future will turn out, but I guess that’s just the journey. I hope everything is going well with you,(tho I probably should have asked on a more recent video).
How are you doing ..?
@@cakestan5691 Hahaha! I’m doing pretty great! But I actually went to McMaster instead and never regretted that choice 😅
I feel so inspired by watching your videos!!! Just finished my first year of engineering at UofT and I definitely felt that grade drop LOL. Can you please do a video talking about dealing with failure and maintaining friendships on top of the stressful coursework?
I'm going to utm first year this fall. Looking forward to it
John Fei Good luck!!!
I will too, see you there!
Loved the editing of the video, great job! 😊❤️ Also it was really interesting to recap your university journey with you!

I remember feeling exactly like this when I finished undergrad, but I had the benefit of knowing I was going into a masters course. Now that my masters is finishing those feelings are resurfacing, especially as I’m not sure how quickly I can get into a PhD course 😂🙈 you’re definitely not alone in this gifting into adult mode, I’ve been trying for two years and I’m still not there 😂 perpetual student mode 😂😂😂
Congrats on almost finishing your masters ! 🎉 haha yeah I feel like this “trying to adult” thing is going to take years LOL 😂
Caitlin's Corner we’ll get there eventually, just a lot of trial and error to get through first 😂
Thank you so much for this video. Made me see things from another pov and think again.
Your new content sounds amazing!!
Hey ❤️ I'm in second year Rotman Commerce! Thank you for this
The digital note taking is what brought me to your channel, so... I'am looking forward to more on that да да
love the video! i’m on track to graduate from university in december, and my first thought about missing it is HECK NO! but at the same time, i’m going to miss the structure of school. going to classes, having a flexible (ish) schedule, being able to wear leggings on days that i want 😂 i’m gonna miss that! it scares me that i won’t know what i’ll be doing for the next four years. i have a horrible case of senioritis, but at the same time i’m terrified of the unknown 😭
Allllll of this resonates with me ! Yeah it’s a complicated feeling- both over it all and also sad to be done with certain things LOL 😅 Good luck with this final stretch Haley...honestly, enjoy every moment of it because you’ll be done before you know it 💕
You should look up Samantha Jane on YT! She's a beauty youtuber from Newfoundland in Toronto but she also did marketing so maybe you'd have some things in common! :) Best of luck in this new chapter in your life!!! Can't wait to see what happens!
I'm so happy for you! I can't wait to continue to follow you throughout your journey. I've pretty much determined that I want to be a CZcamsr but I'm having trouble with my content 😥
Awww thank-you! I sometimes struggle with content too...at the end of the day, you got to make what you have a passion for ! Makes it so much easier to stay consistent and work hard on videos when you love what you’re creating ❤️
I will miss the university content for sure 😭😭😭
Me too ! It’s not all ending yet though-some last back to school content will be coming this summer !
Hey girl! Congrats on graduating because it is definitely some thing to celebrate! If you don’t mind, just wanted to ask what your marks were like when you got admitted because I really want to do the exact same program but I’m not too sure if my marks are enough!
I am thisssss close to pressing accept offer for Rotman commerce (with Woodsworth as well and I do want to experience dorm life) ... did you have a chance to do internship? I also received an offer for UTSC BBA with Co-op and I am still deciding between the two, do you have any advice? :D congratulations on graduating!
this video is super relatable im going into my fourth year of business at u of c
This video is quite relatable as I am just graduating as well; however, I am doing a master’s degree in the Fall, but it’s only for a year, so I’ll be thrown in the « real world » soon 😝.
Hi caitlin..!!! Ur my fav youtuber. I came across most of ur vedios , that they were so much helpful to motivate me and made me feel to come back to Canada again .. cuz im currently in Sri lanka. Most probably ill be cmng to toronto in another 2- 3 years. LOL. Sending loads of love from srilanka .. do more vedios im waiting for them so badly .. 😁🙂🙂🙂
Woo girl I relate to this hard. I just found your channel but I also go to U of T and I agree with everything you said haha. Love your channel.. new sub!
Congrats in Graduation!!!!!
Im an international student ....and after seeing this video i think i would not even make it out of 2nd year....
So much of work n lots of fun defines uni 😍❤
Education gets you your first real job......work experience gets you all the rest of them.
Wondering if you could do a video about rotman commerce? I’m thinking about applying next year and it would help a lot. Thanks!
I’ve been getting questions about this so I’m considering it ! ☺️
Congrats on graduating! 😍🎊 Do you by chance have any information on the law department of UofT? (reputation, facilities, students, etc.)
It's top 2 in Ontario at the very least.
Ryan Chow Thank you for your answer! Do you know anything on the University of British Columbia’s law department as well?
@@lizykim7460 no knowledge of UBC. But in Ontario, UofT Osgoode, queens, Ottawa are all top law schools
Congrats!!! How excitement for the adventures ahead~
(I felt very lost because I was no longer sweating blood with pressures lol; hoped on a plane to Guam with my pushbike for two weeks~ perfect)
Haha LOVE that 👌🏼😂💕 and thanks!
proud of u for getting this up
Haha thanks-the struggle to edit this was real 🤪
Omg I’m still in high school right now but rotman commerce at u of t is my dream program !!!
Omg I loved this video.
Thanks !
Congrats on the graduation
I am in grade 12 right now and headed to University next year… I am very perfectionistic about my grades and was wondering how you broke that cycle yourself of not equating grades to your self worth.
i can't say that i'm perfect at it or don't think about it, but i think a lot of it is honestly just going through failure and getting bad grades. that's not easy to like actively work on though, so i guess besides that just not asking other people how they're doing or engaging in grade-comparison-talk kind of stuff?
Kate gave a lot of great tips there! For me, in first year I remember studying like crazy for my first few tests and often times I’d get a mark that didn’t reflect that hard work...it initially was hard to accept that because in high school, if I worked hard my grade almost always showed that. But in university, it’s not that simple because each prof/course has veryyy different expectations. So I realized that I couldn’t look at grades anymore as a reflection of my knowledge or work ethic because sometimes something else is at play with that grade...so I don’t take the number so personally anymore. Also, if you’re going to continue your education, grades matter to a certain extent-but most of the time, I think people put too much value on grades as a necessary requirement for success. If you only care about grades, you’ll miss out on a lot of the fun aspects about university (exploring campus, hanging out with friends, trying out hobbies, etc.). Those are the things you’ll remember, not the grades you got in school ❤️
