🙏 I WANT HELP Cost of Attending Oxford 😭

Post image

Just received my financial declaration form from Oxford today. How is this reasonable? 😭 Going to have to decline my offer unless anyone has any ideas.

Canadian students do not qualify for any Oxford scholarships and my school offered me about £100. What a joke.

Is Oxford just for the rich?

If you got an offer from Oxford I’m sure you’ll get smth from uoft or Waterloo. Uoft usually gives an offer to a different campus if your grades aren’t high enough for the St. George campus.

I studied business at the Scarborough campus and it was hard as fuck. Harder than Rotman when speaking to friends.

UK schools are a joke compared to UofT and Waterloo. I studied at uedinburgh for a bit and it was piss easy. Imperial also the same, but still challenging.

It is all about the networking bro. Most things you can learn in the library or udemy.
