check out the universities that are offering bachelor of commerce in both countries, read their curriculum and courses being offered, also look for their reputation, and then decide which one you like the most. I preferably will go for universities in Australia as i have heard that they are better than the universities in New Zealand. However, it all depends upon you how much you do the research on the subject and universities in both countries. good luck!

I had a lot of the same issues--I go to Dartmouth now.  Still have very bad depression, but that's another issue.  But yes, McGill should understand.  However, you will need a letter verifying these things unfortunately (from your school guidance counselor generally).  McGill presents a whole other issue because I do think Canadian students get preference.  I wish you all the best, honey.  I think you can get in--just make sure you have really good essays and good recommendations.  Just remember, whatever is, is for the best.  Did you take any SAT IIs?  Those scores often count for a lot.  If you have any more questions, just add it to details--I will check later.  Honestly, all the luck in the world to you, I'll be glad to help you in any way I can.

Talk to your University administration, they might have a student visa program.

That is what I wanted to be when I was young!  I know Simon Fraser University in British Columbia is a good one!  Good Luck...and save the whales!  :)

The best choice for you is University of Toronto. This is a link to their biochemistry program:\nhttp://www.biochemistry.utoronto.ca/department/index.html\n\nAdmissions info here:\nhttp://biochemistry.utoronto.ca/undergraduates/index.html\n\nVisa info here:\nhttp://www.utoronto.ca/Prospective_Students.htm\n\nGoodluck!\n\ncc

A BSC should give you better credability internationally than a tech.. or so I've heard :-)

Hello,\n\n    I presume that you mean the University of Alberta, which is in Edmonton. I also presume that you are writing from the US.\n\n    School here is much less expensive than a comparable school in the US. So are living costs for a student, with the one exception of car insurance which is very high.\n\n    Canadian students here are very hard working and I think school here is a little harder than a comparable school in the US.\n\n    Edmonton is a city of about a million, which is a nice size. A subway connects the University with "downtown".\n\n    It is cold here half the year. But, I've never heard anyone associtted with the U of A NOT brag about it. I've never seen that anywhere else, at a company or a school.\n\n    I hope that helps.

I'm not canadian, and I'm not into dentistry, but I know that the best universities in Canada are on the west coast, near the major cities, and all of them will have answers to your questions. The answers they give may vary from uni to uni however, so contact more than one. Good luck.

Queen's University has an excellent Engineering program.  One of my good friends goes there, and he loves it!  You should definitely check it out, it's one of Canada's best colleges, but their Engineering program really stands out.\n\nhttp://www.queensu.ca/homepage/

I'm not as familiar with Canadian universities as I am with those in the US and Europe, so I'm sorry. But from what little I do know, both are considered good schools. U Toronto has a bigger "name", to my knowledge, but Microsoft recruits out of U Waterloo.

I graduated from there. It is a BIG school with an amazing selection of excellent degree programs. I suggest you live in the dorms to start off -- you have to find a community there or you'll go a little nuts.

Your best bet is to look up your course, or its school, on the league tables, such as The Times' Good University Guide. Bear in mind that the better universities can charge higher fees, though. If it is a standard degree, it should take around three years, through some can be two, and some can be four (or even five). Mainly, you should visit the campuses of the ones you're most interested in. Some can be located within cities, others in the country. Depending on your personality, you may prefer one over the other. Some campuses also are just plain nasty, and you won't know that unless you see it. Being happy there is important, because if you're miserable, you won't do as well.\n\nOranda Lady: Firstly, I find it astonishing that you take a shot at the grammar of another who appears to be shool-aged, whilst paying no attention to your own punctuation. Or perhaps your shift keys are broken? Secondly, in parts of London and the South, 'what' as opposed to 'which' is a perfectly grammatical and acceptable construction, and linguistically, no one dialect is any more valid than another.

If you have a university in mind, then look up the phone number and ask them to send you their latest prospectus.  In it there will be plenty of courses that encompass the subjects that you are studying at college.  When you get through to the uni, ask for "Student Recruitment"  ask the name of the person you get to speak to and see if there are going to be any campus guides in the future and ask to be put on the invite list, as you are getting the info from me, rest assured you will be one of the first to get your name on.  These visits are very useful and can often make your mind up as to what uni to go to.\n\n                              Hope this helps you, Good Luck for the future.\n\n                                               Kevin.

Northeastern University is a great university. It's right in Boston near transportation systems (bus and train) and the Food Court is nice. They have many very interesting public seminars and speeches there, too. It's great. I think you should go there.

Uni? What is your studies?
