Many forces played a factor for me to choose the Glendon campus (extension of York University) as my school. I liked the fact that the classes were small enough for me to establish person relationships with my professors, the school had a small amount of students in all four years - making it feel like less of a jungle. And finally, I was able to peruse and finish my studies in French for it was the only campus in Toronto to offer it as part of my English B.A.
