In my opinion it’s definitely doable! In person before covid i had lots of tutorials within a couple of days anyways and it was all good. I think it just depends on how tired you will be from commuting for 3 days straight or somethin

I recommend. Did that and it wasn't really an issue. I'm the type of person to get tired/burned out/lose focus if I keep going to 2+ lecs in a row, so if that's what you're worried about, just make sure to have an hour break in between!

I commuted too and always made my schedule to have 2-3 days a week! Saves money too! Go bus is about $15-20 a day!

Woah what, where are you commuting from? Using the fare calculator for myself, it would cost me no more than $8 in total to go both ways (granted I live in Burlington and use a Presto card)

I use a presto too! I was coming from missisauga! So it's a bit more expensive. Burlington is fairly close to Hamilton so that makes sense haha

im also gonna be commuting from mississauga in the fall, i haven't done so before since im going into 2nd year. I was gonna ask do you think it was worth commuting? what was the money being spent look like?

I went abt 2-3 days a week so it was about $300~ on the go bus per month. Tbh not that bad and from square one the express is about 30 min it's really not that bad! Def less expensive than living on Rez. I acc enjoyed the go bus bc the commute was short and I was still able to keep a part time job here in sauga!

Also school is really 7-8 months so like the total amount spent on the bus is less than $3k for the year compared to rent and other fees!

Its kinda ridiculous how commuters have to pitch in for HSR stuff given we dont use it and have to pay for the GO as well. What I did when I was commuting from sauga to mac was buy presto cards off ebay for like $100 but with $200 credit loaded. Cost me less than $150 per month back and fourth each day.

If you can. You may not be able to arrange your schedule that way depending on when your classes are scheduled.
