Anyone going to Canada for university?

I've applied for the Canadian Memorial Foundation Scholarship to do a Maters in Canada. Chosen Uni's are Carleton Uni, York Uni and UBC. I think Carleton is the only option as the other two are quite demanding.

Are the majority of Canadian Maters 2 years?

Hey, am about to apply to McGill and perhaps either UBC/UT/York for Economics or commerce. Is being predicted 35/36 for the IB sufficient?

Also, with regards to costs, is canadian HE generally cheaper than UK? Because i'm from Hong Kong and would have to pay international fees at both. Also, Canadian degrees are 4 years and UK ones are 3 years. Thanks in advance for the advice.

I think Carleton University will be the best option, I really hope I get in! They would benefit from my soccer skills aswell! Bring on the Ravens!

Carleton is not too difficult to get in, so don't worry.

Look out for the giant spider!

It isn't difficult to get in...but I don't think it's that reputable.

A lot of my Canadian friends are going to UOttawa for grad school for economics and sciences.

It has some good programs but overall....

We're talking about Carleton University...not University of Ottawa. University of Ottawa is only good because it's a bilingual university...and the fact that it is located in the capital city of Canada.

U of Ottawa is ranked higher than Carleton!

Obviously that's the case! However...I heard that Carleton's architectural program isn't bad.

It`s not good either.

Hi netizens!

I went to McGill's website for about an hour or so but cant seem to find specific grade/subject requirements for their courses! All I found was that we needed a minimum of B,C,C or so but no specific course requirements!


Also i have another question, saw this on their website:

"You must arrange for your school to send McGill University an official transcript of your complete high school record to date. Transcripts should show interim grades for the current year for courses in progress.

If you have completed Advanced Level, Advanced Subsidiary, CAPE, Ordinary Level, GCSE, HKCEE, or CSEC, you must arrange for your school to forward a certified photocopy of the certificate(s) and/or Candidate Statement(s) of Results to McGill. "

Surely I can send a photocopied version to them by myself without asking the school to do it for me?

Hmm, so guys have any of you figured out the required specific grades needed to enter each McGill course? I cant seem to find on it on their website

Well im not that reputable. I got a 2:1 from the University of Huddersfield (Patrick Stewart stomping ground). Carleton is my only option to do Film at Masters level, as York & UBC demand you do film at undergraduate level, I did Entrepreneurship.
