Hi I was wondering if the commute from windsor ontario to UDM is reasonable. Also is it true that you have to pay $5 everytime you cross the border? Hence, it will be $10 a day. So around $2000 a year?

Another question is: I know D1 and D2 years are VERY high work load at UDM (as with other schools) but does the workload taper down significantly in 3rd and 4th year at UDM (because this is the case for most other schools). Whats a typical day in 3rd year like?
 
Check out the nexus pass or enhanced drivers licenses ... I went to niagara falls after my buffalo interview and cursed the people zooming right by me through the speed lane as I waited to get into Canada. I think the application process is kind of involved, but surely worth it if you'll be making a daily haul.
 
Does the nexus pass just allow you to go through the border quicker or does it actually allow you to go through the border under a cheaper payment plan? I checked their website and it doesn't seem to say anything about price

It is to get through customs faster since you're considered a "trusted traveler". I thought the tolls were for the bridge/tunnel itself.

I think the nexus pass just allows you to go over the border in a different, quicker lane. But it looks like there are rewards passes you can use in conjunction with the nexus card that will get you a buck off each time over the bridge. Not sure about the detroit windsor tunnel, though, google it!
