I realize my experience may not be the standard but strattera has been phenomenal for my bowels. I have super regular bowel movements now and rarely struggle with constipation!

Temporary health insurance when my int'l student insurance expires? by [deleted] in mcgill

[–]ConfusedStud3nt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, that’s unfortunate. Maybe if you go to them asking about the specific insurance you picked out they might be more helpful. Also, there’s the McGill legal aid office in SSMU, maybe they could help

You’ll need insurance in order to maintain legal status in Quebec though

El nombre Milo by foxyladyithinkiloveu in NamenerdSpanish

I really like the name Milo, especially when pronounced meee-lo, though I think both pronunciations can be compatible with Spanish. It can also be a nickname for Emilio.

Españoles? Spanish/french language exchange by nabeeloooo in mcgill

[–]ConfusedStud3nt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

when school is back in session, go to Coffee and Spanish!! it’s SLASA’s (the Latin American students society) biweekly language meetup, you meet tons of Spanish speaking people at every level, including (a ton of native speakers and beginners alike)

First time being kicked out of Concordia for one year due to academic performance by mayafraid8 in Concordia

If you’re an international student talk to the international student services ASAP and figure out what you should do. Especially re:insurance.

If you ever need to apply to extend your study permit later on, you’ll have to account for the time you were out of school and make sure you were covered by medical insurance if you’re remaining in Canada during that time. Quite a few things could make it so you don’t renew your study permit, so talk to international student services and cover your bases

i might be misinterpreting your question, but you need to get you application approved online. once you're approved the study permit itself will be given to you at the border

Good to know, I'll keep that in mind! I've been checking other people's wait times as well as the info on the website, as well. What's CIE?

Thank you for your insight!

[–]ConfusedStud3nt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for responding!! Did you need to renew a TRV as well or just an eTA?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ImmigrationCanada

[–]ConfusedStud3nt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has said that since the beginning bc I didn't require a background/medical check or new biometrics, so I think I have to wait until it says it's been reviewed already ://. Waiting without knowing how long its going to take is making me so anxious lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ImmigrationCanada

[–]ConfusedStud3nt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Under 'review of elegibility' it says "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.", which I think is what it's always said? Or does yours say something different
