What is Commuter Orientation?

Prior to our official Orientation Week, our team hosts Commuter Orientation, or "Comm-O" as we like to call it, which is a day of programming exclusively for our incoming class of commuter students - and yes, you can participate in both O-Week and Comm-O! Here at Victoria College, we aim to provide you with a memorable introduction to university life.

Who is considered a commuter student?

A "commuter" is a student who travels from home in order to get to class every day - in other words, pretty much everyone who does not live in residence! At Vic, we understand that commuter students face unique challenges. Comm-O is designed to help commuter students better connect with the Vic and UofT community while providing an opportunity to engage in an eventful two-day event with your commuter peers!

CALLING ALL COMMUTER STUDENTS!

Comm-O, is ON and it’s starting with activities throughout July and coming to a close with a full day of programming on August 9th called Comm-O Day with the the 2025 theme “Victoriaverse”; it’s a day filled with pancakes, scavenger hunts, crafts, dinner at Burwash dining hall and karaoke. So mark your calendars for the dates below!

Below you’ll find all scheduling information so mark your calendars and fill in the form to register!

Commuter ISLAND DAy

Not only will there be events running through July, and Comm-O Day, but you’re also invited to set sail for a day of connection, sunshine, and fun on the Toronto Islands! Commuter Island Day is your chance to meet fellow commuters, hang out with the Commuter Dons, and start building your Vic community before Orientation officially begins.
