[Music]

0:00:35.120,0:00:36.480
so right now we're standing right in

0:00:36.480,0:00:38.000
front of our international living

0:00:38.000,0:00:40.640
learning center or ilk for short

0:00:40.640,0:00:41.920
although the title includes

0:00:41.920,0:00:43.440
international in the name it doesn't

0:00:43.440,0:00:44.399
mean that you need to be an

0:00:44.399,0:00:46.399
international student to apply here you

0:00:46.399,0:00:48.079
can still be domestic and from canada

0:00:48.079,0:00:50.079
and still be considered we're going to

0:00:50.079,0:00:51.840
check out two different room cells today

0:00:51.840,0:00:54.239
which is the single and the double let's

0:00:54.239,0:00:58.520
head on inside and take a look

0:01:15.439,0:01:17.200
a fun fact about the international

0:01:17.200,0:01:18.720
living learning center is that it used

0:01:18.720,0:01:20.960
to be a hotel until it was bought by the

0:01:20.960,0:01:22.080
university

0:01:22.080,0:01:24.000
so it's a really neat type of room style

0:01:24.000,0:01:26.880
which we'll be checking out all of the

0:01:26.880,0:01:29.280
suites in here do have bathrooms which

0:01:29.280,0:01:31.439
are inside the bedroom units

0:01:31.439,0:01:32.960
so it's great if you're looking for a

0:01:32.960,0:01:36.960
little bit more privacy in that regard

0:01:38.799,0:01:41.040
we do have our elk lounge over to the

0:01:41.040,0:01:43.360
side which is a great area for if you

0:01:43.360,0:01:45.200
want to go ahead and do school work with

0:01:45.200,0:01:47.439
friends or just want a place to hang out

0:01:47.439,0:01:50.240
while you're doing some of your

0:01:50.240,0:01:53.040
daily tasks working on school work or

0:01:53.040,0:01:55.119
just want to grab a bite to eat

0:01:55.119,0:01:57.119
we also have the cafeteria here on the

0:01:57.119,0:01:58.960
ground floor which we'll be taking a

0:01:58.960,0:02:02.079
look at in just a moment

0:02:07.680,0:02:10.319
here is one of the cafeterias that we

0:02:10.319,0:02:12.879
operate here at ryerson residence

0:02:12.879,0:02:14.800
this one is located within the base of

0:02:14.800,0:02:17.440
elk but it's open to all students across

0:02:17.440,0:02:19.280
our buildings so no matter where you're

0:02:19.280,0:02:20.959
living you can still go ahead and access

0:02:20.959,0:02:23.760
here we have drink machines here on the

0:02:23.760,0:02:24.640
side

0:02:24.640,0:02:26.800
lots of space for eating

0:02:26.800,0:02:28.400
and then we have

0:02:28.400,0:02:31.200
a sign right here dedicated to how we

0:02:31.200,0:02:32.959
really support local foods and

0:02:32.959,0:02:36.239
incorporating that into our processes

0:02:36.239,0:02:38.480
so here in elk if you are living in this

0:02:38.480,0:02:39.680
building you would be enrolled in the

0:02:39.680,0:02:41.840
seven day meal plan however students in

0:02:41.840,0:02:44.080
the five-day meal plan are also the flex

0:02:44.080,0:02:46.000
option for just having dollars loaded

0:02:46.000,0:02:47.599
onto their account but a declining

0:02:47.599,0:02:49.680
balance would also be able to access

0:02:49.680,0:02:50.640
this

0:02:50.640,0:02:52.560
as you can see right here we usually

0:02:52.560,0:02:55.200
have a salad and soup

0:02:55.200,0:02:56.160
we have

0:02:56.160,0:02:57.920
options which are provided on a daily

0:02:57.920,0:02:59.040
basis

0:02:59.040,0:03:00.959
and then we also have a lot of different

0:03:00.959,0:03:03.120
factors which go into consideration for

0:03:03.120,0:03:06.560
allergy allergies dietary restrictions

0:03:06.560,0:03:08.720
and also just different options that

0:03:08.720,0:03:10.640
rotate throughout the week so that you

0:03:10.640,0:03:14.200
don't become bored

0:03:19.680,0:03:21.120
and let's go ahead and go up to the

0:03:21.120,0:03:22.800
residence tower where we can go ahead

0:03:22.800,0:03:25.840
and take a look at the rooms

0:03:26.400,0:03:28.159
so now we're standing in front of the

0:03:28.159,0:03:29.599
resident security desk for the

0:03:29.599,0:03:31.440

0:03:34.080,0:03:35.920
residence buildings with elk included

0:03:35.920,0:03:38.319
within that so we usually during the

0:03:38.319,0:03:40.799
school year have a student member during

0:03:40.799,0:03:42.799

0:03:46.480,0:03:48.959
need during your stay including signing

0:04:02.330,0:04:04.319
[Music]

0:04:04.319,0:04:05.920
all right so right now we're just

0:04:05.920,0:04:07.840
stepping onto one of our floors here in

0:04:07.840,0:04:10.159
elk so let's go ahead and take a look at

0:04:10.159,0:04:12.159
what that looks like

0:04:12.159,0:04:13.920
we have our common lounge when you step

0:04:13.920,0:04:16.000
out of the elevators which would be a

0:04:16.000,0:04:18.720
great area for you to go ahead and meet

0:04:18.720,0:04:19.600
for

0:04:19.600,0:04:22.000
uh weekly meetings with your residence

0:04:22.000,0:04:24.479
advisor and you can see all these

0:04:24.479,0:04:26.000
opportunities right here which would

0:04:26.000,0:04:28.320
usually be located on the calendar so

0:04:28.320,0:04:30.560
come to school here it is full to the

0:04:30.560,0:04:34.720
brim with everything happening each day

0:04:34.720,0:04:38.080
here in elk we also have a common lounge

0:04:38.080,0:04:41.040
area which is fantastic for going ahead

0:04:41.040,0:04:43.360
and fitting all your cooking needs so

0:04:43.360,0:04:44.720
even though you're enrolled in the seven

0:04:44.720,0:04:46.639
day meal plan and have the cafeteria

0:04:46.639,0:04:48.639
down below just right on the ground

0:04:48.639,0:04:49.520
level

0:04:49.520,0:04:51.520
you also can use this at any time if you

0:04:51.520,0:04:54.320
want to cook a late night snack or

0:04:54.320,0:04:58.240
to store some food for your own use

0:05:00.320,0:05:02.080
let's go ahead now and take a look at

0:05:02.080,0:05:04.080
what some of our room styles look like

0:05:04.080,0:05:05.280
here

0:05:05.280,0:05:06.960
great so now we're going to go ahead and

0:05:06.960,0:05:09.680
access elk at which you would also use

0:05:09.680,0:05:11.759
your key insert it right in the door and

0:05:11.759,0:05:14.639
then take a step in

0:05:17.680,0:05:20.240
so as you can see it's a very bright and

0:05:20.240,0:05:22.960
sunny unit

0:05:23.199,0:05:25.520
when you take a step in you can take in

0:05:25.520,0:05:27.360
the view

0:05:27.360,0:05:31.120
which is great of the downtown

0:05:33.280,0:05:34.880
here would be your bed which you could

0:05:34.880,0:05:37.440
go ahead and customize the way you want

0:05:37.440,0:05:39.600
with putting a lot of pictures behind

0:05:39.600,0:05:41.840
you a lot of students like to string up

0:05:41.840,0:05:44.080
lights in their units do anything that

0:05:44.080,0:05:45.600
really just makes you feel like you're

0:05:45.600,0:05:46.800
at home

0:05:46.800,0:05:48.960
there's also all the furniture that you

0:05:48.960,0:05:51.120
see here included with the unit

0:05:51.120,0:05:52.479
so there would be

0:05:52.479,0:05:53.600
all of

0:05:53.600,0:05:55.759
these dressers

0:05:55.759,0:05:57.199
desks

0:05:57.199,0:05:58.960
which interesting fun fact that you

0:05:58.960,0:06:01.199
might not realize but this is a cork

0:06:01.199,0:06:03.520
board which you could go ahead and

0:06:03.520,0:06:05.120
pin things to if you want to have your

0:06:05.120,0:06:08.400
calendar reminders to-do notes anything

0:06:08.400,0:06:10.080
that might be useful to you

0:06:10.080,0:06:12.479
each unit here also comes included with

0:06:12.479,0:06:14.560
air conditioning and heating which you

0:06:14.560,0:06:16.080
can go ahead and change yourself right

0:06:16.080,0:06:19.080
here

0:06:20.810,0:06:22.560
[Music]

0:06:22.560,0:06:24.960
storage is included on both sides of

0:06:24.960,0:06:27.759
this unit which would allow you lots of

0:06:27.759,0:06:29.600
space to go ahead and hang up your dress

0:06:29.600,0:06:30.479
shirts

0:06:30.479,0:06:33.039
or jackets whatever you may have to face

0:06:33.039,0:06:34.880
the canadian winters

0:06:34.880,0:06:37.199
let's go ahead and take a look at the

0:06:37.199,0:06:40.319
bathroom unit which is right here

0:06:40.319,0:06:42.560
so as you can see here in elk you do

0:06:42.560,0:06:44.160
have your personal bathroom which is

0:06:44.160,0:06:46.160
great for your use

0:06:46.160,0:06:47.759
it's really nice for the privacy

0:06:47.759,0:06:50.000
purposes of just having this located

0:06:50.000,0:06:51.840
right inside your unit so if that's

0:06:51.840,0:06:53.440
something you're looking for it's a very

0:06:53.440,0:06:56.400
unique setup that is specific to our

0:06:56.400,0:06:59.120
international living learning center

0:06:59.120,0:07:00.960
now let's go ahead and take a look at

0:07:00.960,0:07:03.440
what else elk has to offer

0:07:03.440,0:07:05.199
one more thing that is really close to

0:07:05.199,0:07:07.280
the resident service desk is also your

0:07:07.280,0:07:09.919
mailbox so if you're living here at elk

0:07:09.919,0:07:11.680
you'll go ahead and be assigned a key to

0:07:11.680,0:07:13.680
one of these mailboxes which is great if

0:07:13.680,0:07:15.919
you want to get snail mail from home i

0:07:15.919,0:07:17.360
really loved it during my first year

0:07:17.360,0:07:19.120
getting postcards from family members

0:07:19.120,0:07:20.240
and friends

0:07:20.240,0:07:22.400
and it's really convenient too if you do

0:07:22.400,0:07:23.919
want packages

0:07:23.919,0:07:25.280
they're going to be sent to the

0:07:25.280,0:07:26.880
residence service desk where you can go

0:07:26.880,0:07:31.160
ahead and get those for pickup

0:07:32.080,0:07:34.160
alright so now we'll be heading outside

0:07:34.160,0:07:35.919
of elk once again

0:07:35.919,0:07:37.919
