I got 750$ for good grades last year, and I get decent amounts from the government (they pay nicely, since my parents are semi-retired, so I qualify for pretty much maximum OSAP) - as for the doors - the ones lead to directly by the Steps, the main entrance, as seen in the diagram I drew for youOriginally Posted by AmericanEagle
).
^ The St. George street entrance?
That's great that you got $750
York offered me a renewable $2000 scholarship, and Ryerson offered me a renewable $2500 scholarship. I turned them down to go to U of T; I guess I wanted the prestige.
Well, I'm not too sad about the York and Ryerson scholarships. I was able to maintain an annual GPA of 3.5+ in both my first and second years, which means that I got my Queen Elizabeth II scholarship renewed.

U of T for some reason didn't give me any entrance, even though I had a 91% in high school. Though, York offered me a 4000$ a year, so I perhaps made a slightly poor choice, perhaps - though, given the strike last year, I am glad I didn't go there.^ The St. George street entrance?

^ $4000? Is that an automatic entrance scholarship?
I had a 93.7% average in high school, and I only received the $2000 scholarship from my college; I didn't get the $5000 U of T Scholars Program.

I managed to get an answer from one of the teachers I've been looking for via e-mail, and he was very co-operative. I guess it's a good thing I hadn't managed to nail him on the wall before this, or things might not have gone this smoothlyWell, giving this matter a conscientious analysis, if we kill teachers we can never get them to reschedule our courses, and if such a terrible event takes place, then we'll never graduate, so I thought it would be wiser to shoot sedative darts at them, nail them against a wall while they sleep (in our case it would be Lit Net's wall) and have them do our bidding.... well more like YOUR bidding, since YOU are the one needing a reschedule of courses. Of course if you need ideas for torturing methods, just let me know, I am at your service and can suggest many wonderful procedures, a few of my own devise
Have a great weekend and rest a lot.... and kill no teacher.... while you need them
....
Now I should start doing homework, or at least tomorrow. I've already got an essay to write, a possible translation assignment to look for and I should also start the Russian listening comprehension exercises and write something about one lecture we had last week. And I'm pretty sure there were some Swedish homework to do also...

Great News!!!! .... now you can use the nails for other teachers, so you won't need to spend on more nails.

Good luck!! ... and remember to take it easy... and get some rest from homework to homework
U of T didn't give me anything - not that I expected them to, but York offered me 4 000$/year for getting over 90% in high school - the government though has been nice to me, and they put the majority of my osap as a check rather than a loan, so I've been doing alright even without the scholarships (plus I live at home, so I don't need to front cash for rent).
And by the way, 93.7 in high school is pretty damn good - who the hell beat you? Must be some sort of inflation going on in some institutions for anyone to get that high an average (95+) and get the big money.

Many people said to me: "You weren't even born in Canada. English isn't even your first language. How could you get a 93.7 average in high school? How could you get accepted to U of T St. George? How could U of T St. George offer you a scholarship?"
You have no idea how upset I was by those comments
So your comment, JBI, really means a lot to me

If thats the case Eagle, then getting a 93.7 is an even bigger feat because of those circumstances. the people who made comments like that are just jealous.Many people said to me: "You weren't even born in Canada.
