00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:33.320
[Music]

00:00:35.120 --> 00:00:36.480
so right now we're standing right in

00:00:36.480 --> 00:00:38.000
front of our international living

00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:40.640
learning center or ilk for short

00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:41.920
although the title includes

00:00:41.920 --> 00:00:43.440
international in the name it doesn't

00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:44.399
mean that you need to be an

00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:46.399
international student to apply here you

00:00:46.399 --> 00:00:48.079
can still be domestic and from canada

00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:50.079
and still be considered we're going to

00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:51.840
check out two different room cells today

00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:54.239
which is the single and the double let's

00:00:54.239 --> 00:00:58.520
head on inside and take a look

00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:17.200
a fun fact about the international

00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:18.720
living learning center is that it used

00:01:18.720 --> 00:01:20.960
to be a hotel until it was bought by the

00:01:20.960 --> 00:01:22.080
university

00:01:22.080 --> 00:01:24.000
so it's a really neat type of room style

00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.880
which we'll be checking out all of the

00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:29.280
suites in here do have bathrooms which

00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:31.439
are inside the bedroom units

00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:32.960
so it's great if you're looking for a

00:01:32.960 --> 00:01:36.960
little bit more privacy in that regard

00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:41.040
we do have our elk lounge over to the

00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:43.360
side which is a great area for if you

00:01:43.360 --> 00:01:45.200
want to go ahead and do school work with

00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.439
friends or just want a place to hang out

00:01:47.439 --> 00:01:50.240
while you're doing some of your

00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:53.040
daily tasks working on school work or

00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:55.119
just want to grab a bite to eat

00:01:55.119 --> 00:01:57.119
we also have the cafeteria here on the

00:01:57.119 --> 00:01:58.960
ground floor which we'll be taking a

00:01:58.960 --> 00:02:02.079
look at in just a moment

00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.319
here is one of the cafeterias that we

00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:12.879
operate here at ryerson residence

00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.800
this one is located within the base of

00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.440
elk but it's open to all students across

00:02:17.440 --> 00:02:19.280
our buildings so no matter where you're

00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:20.959
living you can still go ahead and access

00:02:20.959 --> 00:02:23.760
here we have drink machines here on the

00:02:23.760 --> 00:02:24.640
side

00:02:24.640 --> 00:02:26.800
lots of space for eating

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:28.400
and then we have

00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:31.200
a sign right here dedicated to how we

00:02:31.200 --> 00:02:32.959
really support local foods and

00:02:32.959 --> 00:02:36.239
incorporating that into our processes

00:02:36.239 --> 00:02:38.480
so here in elk if you are living in this

00:02:38.480 --> 00:02:39.680
building you would be enrolled in the

00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:41.840
seven day meal plan however students in

00:02:41.840 --> 00:02:44.080
the five-day meal plan are also the flex

00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:46.000
option for just having dollars loaded

00:02:46.000 --> 00:02:47.599
onto their account but a declining

00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:49.680
balance would also be able to access

00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:50.640
this

00:02:50.640 --> 00:02:52.560
as you can see right here we usually

00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:55.200
have a salad and soup

00:02:55.200 --> 00:02:56.160
we have

00:02:56.160 --> 00:02:57.920
options which are provided on a daily

00:02:57.920 --> 00:02:59.040
basis

00:02:59.040 --> 00:03:00.959
and then we also have a lot of different

00:03:00.959 --> 00:03:03.120
factors which go into consideration for

00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:06.560
allergy allergies dietary restrictions

00:03:06.560 --> 00:03:08.720
and also just different options that

00:03:08.720 --> 00:03:10.640
rotate throughout the week so that you

00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:14.200
don't become bored

00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:21.120
and let's go ahead and go up to the

00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:22.800
residence tower where we can go ahead

00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:25.840
and take a look at the rooms

00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:28.159
so now we're standing in front of the

00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:29.599
resident security desk for the

00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:31.440
international living learning center we

00:03:31.440 --> 00:03:34.080
provide 24 7 security at all of our

00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:35.920
residence buildings with elk included

00:03:35.920 --> 00:03:38.319
within that so we usually during the

00:03:38.319 --> 00:03:40.799
school year have a student member during

00:03:40.799 --> 00:03:42.799
the school day located here at this desk

00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:44.480
who's able to help you with mail

00:03:44.480 --> 00:03:46.480
packages or anything else that you may

00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:48.959
need during your stay including signing

00:03:48.959 --> 00:03:50.319
in guests

00:03:50.319 --> 00:03:51.840
they will go ahead and allow you to go

00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:53.920
ahead and scan your residence id right

00:03:53.920 --> 00:03:55.760
here before you go ahead and take the

00:03:55.760 --> 00:03:58.239
elevator bank up to see the residence

00:03:58.239 --> 00:04:01.840

00:04:02.330 --> 00:04:04.319
[Music]

00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:05.920
all right so right now we're just

00:04:05.920 --> 00:04:07.840
stepping onto one of our floors here in

00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:10.159
elk so let's go ahead and take a look at

00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:12.159
what that looks like

00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:13.920
we have our common lounge when you step

00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:16.000
out of the elevators which would be a

00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:18.720
great area for you to go ahead and meet

00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:19.600
for

00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:22.000
uh weekly meetings with your residence

advisor and you can see all these

00:04:24.479 --> 00:04:26.000
opportunities right here which would

00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.320
usually be located on the calendar so

00:04:28.320 --> 00:04:30.560
come to school here it is full to the

00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:34.720
brim with everything happening each day

00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:38.080
here in elk we also have a common lounge

00:04:38.080 --> 00:04:41.040
area which is fantastic for going ahead

00:04:41.040 --> 00:04:43.360
and fitting all your cooking needs so

00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:44.720
even though you're enrolled in the seven

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:46.639
day meal plan and have the cafeteria

00:04:46.639 --> 00:04:48.639
down below just right on the ground

00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:49.520
level

00:04:49.520 --> 00:04:51.520
you also can use this at any time if you

00:04:51.520 --> 00:04:54.320
want to cook a late night snack or

00:04:54.320 --> 00:04:58.240
to store some food for your own use

00:05:00.320 --> 00:05:02.080
let's go ahead now and take a look at

00:05:02.080 --> 00:05:04.080
what some of our room styles look like

00:05:04.080 --> 00:05:05.280
here

00:05:05.280 --> 00:05:06.960
great so now we're going to go ahead and

00:05:06.960 --> 00:05:09.680
access elk at which you would also use

00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:11.759
your key insert it right in the door and

00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.639
then take a step in

00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:20.240
so as you can see it's a very bright and

00:05:20.240 --> 00:05:22.960
sunny unit

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:25.520
when you take a step in you can take in

00:05:25.520 --> 00:05:27.360
the view

00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:31.120
which is great of the downtown

00:05:33.280 --> 00:05:34.880
here would be your bed which you could

00:05:34.880 --> 00:05:37.440
go ahead and customize the way you want

00:05:37.440 --> 00:05:39.600
with putting a lot of pictures behind

00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:41.840
you a lot of students like to string up

00:05:41.840 --> 00:05:44.080
lights in their units do anything that

00:05:44.080 --> 00:05:45.600
really just makes you feel like you're

00:05:45.600 --> 00:05:46.800
at home

00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:48.960
there's also all the furniture that you

00:05:48.960 --> 00:05:51.120
see here included with the unit

00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:52.479
so there would be

00:05:52.479 --> 00:05:53.600
all of

00:05:53.600 --> 00:05:55.759
these dressers

00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:57.199
desks

00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:58.960
which interesting fun fact that you

00:05:58.960 --> 00:06:01.199
might not realize but this is a cork

00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:03.520
board which you could go ahead and

00:06:03.520 --> 00:06:05.120
pin things to if you want to have your

00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:08.400
calendar reminders to-do notes anything

00:06:08.400 --> 00:06:10.080
that might be useful to you

00:06:10.080 --> 00:06:12.479
each unit here also comes included with

00:06:12.479 --> 00:06:14.560
air conditioning and heating which you

00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:16.080
can go ahead and change yourself right

00:06:16.080 --> 00:06:19.080
here

00:06:20.810 --> 00:06:22.560
[Music]

00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:24.960
storage is included on both sides of

00:06:24.960 --> 00:06:27.759
this unit which would allow you lots of

00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:29.600
space to go ahead and hang up your dress

00:06:29.600 --> 00:06:30.479
shirts

00:06:30.479 --> 00:06:33.039
or jackets whatever you may have to face

00:06:33.039 --> 00:06:34.880
the canadian winters

00:06:34.880 --> 00:06:37.199
let's go ahead and take a look at the

00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:40.319
bathroom unit which is right here

00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:42.560
so as you can see here in elk you do

00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:44.160
have your personal bathroom which is

00:06:44.160 --> 00:06:46.160
great for your use

00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:47.759
it's really nice for the privacy

00:06:47.759 --> 00:06:50.000
purposes of just having this located

00:06:50.000 --> 00:06:51.840
right inside your unit so if that's

00:06:51.840 --> 00:06:53.440
something you're looking for it's a very

00:06:53.440 --> 00:06:56.400
unique setup that is specific to our

00:06:56.400 --> 00:06:59.120
international living learning center

00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:00.960
now let's go ahead and take a look at

00:07:00.960 --> 00:07:03.440
what else elk has to offer

00:07:03.440 --> 00:07:05.199
one more thing that is really close to

00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:07.280
the resident service desk is also your

00:07:07.280 --> 00:07:09.919
mailbox so if you're living here at elk

00:07:09.919 --> 00:07:11.680
you'll go ahead and be assigned a key to

00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:13.680
one of these mailboxes which is great if

00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:15.919
you want to get snail mail from home i

00:07:15.919 --> 00:07:17.360
really loved it during my first year

00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:19.120
getting postcards from family members

00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:20.240
and friends

00:07:20.240 --> 00:07:22.400
and it's really convenient too if you do

00:07:22.400 --> 00:07:23.919
want packages

00:07:23.919 --> 00:07:25.280
they're going to be sent to the

00:07:25.280 --> 00:07:26.880
residence service desk where you can go

00:07:26.880 --> 00:07:31.160
ahead and get those for pickup

00:07:32.080 --> 00:07:34.160
alright so now we'll be heading outside

00:07:34.160 --> 00:07:35.919
of elk once again

00:07:35.919 --> 00:07:37.919
thank you so much for visiting us on

00:07:37.919 --> 00:07:40.880

rooms which we're not currently showing

00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:44.319

00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:49.039
be posting right now

00:07:49.039 --> 00:07:51.919
so just to recap we have our

00:07:51.919 --> 00:07:53.199
single bedroom

00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:54.800
and we have our double bedrooms which

00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.120
are available within elk

00:07:57.120 --> 00:07:58.879
all of these units come with the seven

00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:01.360
day meal plan which can go ahead and be

00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:04.000
used at the elk cafeteria located on the

00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:05.280
ground level

00:08:05.280 --> 00:08:07.759
or also at the pitman cafeteria if you

00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:10.560
wish to switch things up

00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.120
we also have a lot of really great space

00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:14.879
here in the common lounge to go ahead

and this building is home to living

00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:22.400
learning communities

00:08:22.400 --> 00:08:23.840
including entrepreneurship and

00:08:23.840 --> 00:08:25.039
innovation

00:08:25.039 --> 00:08:27.280
