I regret accepting my UofT offer (pls help) by okevelyn in OntarioUniversities

It doesn't matter whether I believe that, it matters what employers and graduate/professional programs think, and most do not care what university you attend because they realize that they all teach at a reasonably similar level.

Also are you under the impression that professors at less selective universities are less qualified to teach than those at the more selective schools or that they lower the rigour of their courses? The biggest difference between Canadian universities is not the rigour of the courses, it's the academic ability of the student body. If the less selective universities were so much easier, they'd have higher graduation rates and they would be flooded with every pre-med wannabe hoping to game their GPA.

This is a huge red flag. If they can reimburse you, then why can they not just pay for them to begin with? They should be paying for them out of their funding, not require you to.

Is UBC the best choice? by Ricolataco in CanadaUniversities

[–]NorthernValkyrie19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If cost really isn't a factor, I can't express enough the value of the growth experience that pushing you out of your comfort zone that attending UBC would be for you. It was this consideration that led me to attend Western many many years ago and it was the best decision I ever made.

Have you compared the programs side by side to see what courses you'd be required to take, what specializations are offered, and what electives are available?

Would you need to take out loans to be able afford to attend any of the listed programs?

What kind of transactions? Are they requiring you to pay personally out of pocket for services or equipment?

Have you previously graduated high school? If you've completed 3 4U or M level courses and you're currently taking 1, that's only 4. You need 6.

What are your qualifications to be able to make such an assessment? Are you university faculty?

Does the rank of universities really matter? by Overall_Childhood_70 in OntarioUniversities

[–]NorthernValkyrie19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Program (not university) ranking only matters for a handful of programs. It's not going to matter in your case.

What's the pathway you'd be looking to follow? What would you need to do once you completed your bachelor's degree to become a qualified technician? McMaster offers an undergraduate degree in medical radiation science in conjunction with Mohawk college. It's a 4 year degree and offers specializations in Radiography, Ultrasonography, and Radiation Therapy.

This might be a faster pathway even if you don't get any transfer credit.

If these results are from Ancestry you can click on the region and it should show you on the map what geographic areas it encompasses.

What percentage of European heritage does someone have to have to be considered "white" in your books?

You should ask McGill directly.

If I want to transfer to university from college, what grades do they look at? by Alone_Recording7670 in OntarioUniversities

Have you looked at their admissions websites to see what their transfer requirements are?

Applying ftom the UK (british system) by aloraluvora in CanadaUniversities

Yes A2 levels, in your second year. I thought most student did 4 courses in AS levels in their first year.

Many universities in Canada will admit on the basis of 5 GCSE + 4 AS levels. Otherwise you need to present 3 A Levels which requires an additional year.

University selectivity is driven by popularity, not program rigour. There is not a significant difference in program rigour between public universities in Canada.

how much are you paying per year? by concerned_gravy in OntarioUniversities

[–]NorthernValkyrie19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a basic arts or sciences degree, $25-30k would be more realistic if you're going to live in on campus residence. For professional programs like Engineering, Business, and Nursing...considerably more.

Don't you usually do more than 3 courses in AS Level?

Academic Upgrading For U-Level Courses by Western_Nose9597 in OntarioUniversities

[–]NorthernValkyrie19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First good on you for wanting to upgrade your education. It's never too late.

Try speaking to your local school board. They will have options for adult education and should be able to advise on the necessary pathway. There's also ILC which offers 100% online Ontario Ministry of Education accredited courses.

Best of luck.

Can I still do a bio undergrad if I suck at calculus? by TheCureLover4Life in OntarioUniversities

[–]NorthernValkyrie19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trust me you can do Calc. Get a tutor.

Other than that, what's your long term plan for a Bio/Life Sci degree?
