HI:
Just had our T.G meal this past Sat with three U of T students(one chem eng ,two computer eng) along with a Mech eng(myself) and my son (a chem eng).
The one U of T student is is the AI lab this summer doing driver-less car research. 
The conversation was rarefied but the out comes were interesting.
CAL Tech and MIT were destinations.
They also made some interesting observations about foreign creds.
I was involved with PLA (prior  learning assessment) at a post secondary level and license accreditation.
Caveat emptor.
