Choosing to study abroad is an exciting milestone. At UT Prep, we understand that international students are far from home, and we are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment they can truly call a home away from home.
Our student residences are conveniently located next to the academic building. Each student has a private room, along with access to shared common areas. Rooms are fully furnished and include kitchen facilities, a refrigerator, sofa, 50” TV, dining table, desk, double bed, seating, internet, heating and air conditioning. Nutritious meals and 24-hour security are also provided.
A dedicated residence supervisor supports students in their daily lives, helping them build independence, adjust to a new environment, and overcome language and cultural barriers so they feel confident and at home within the UT Prep community.
UT Prep is located near a vibrant business district, within walking distance of supermarkets, banks, and restaurants, with convenient public transportation. Scarborough Town Centre is just five minutes away by bus, offering students both a quality learning environment and a well-connected, comfortable lifestyle.
