So sorry to hear about this...... Yes it's much easier.
Never give up, you can land full tuition waiver for US also but you need to write your GRE and apply on time.

Go here for more info on everything you need.

thank you waiververy much for your reply. I am not quite clear on the tuition waiver, do I have to just write the GRE and apply on time or I have to apply also for the tuition waiver or for an assistantship that will come with a tuition , or I should just complete the regular application and submit my GRE scores? please I need to know how the full process works. looking forward to hearing from you. thank you.

Greetings to all the great members of this forum. I'll be as straight forward as possible. I graduated with a Bachelor's in 2017 and applied for my masters in environmental policy this year 2018, in Canada. I was awarded a full tuition waiver, living stipend and money for accommodation. But my study permit application was refused, for so many reasons a 22 year old cannot comprehend.

I have decided to let God take the glory and move on seeking similar opportunities in U.S.A for my masters in environment related field.

please I implore the benevolent contributors in this group to give me some ideas.

in conclusion, I need to know how to apply for a tuition waiver when applying for my master's program in USA. when I applied to Canada, I was asked to contact a faculty supervisor willing to supervise my research. The total applicable funding was quoted on the program website, but for the USA I learnt this process is for PhD applications.

should I just go ahead and search for programs with my course of interest, apply, and pray I get a similar opportunity? (the USA student visa process is easier I guess) or I still need to identity a faculty supervisor prior to my application? (I am going for thesis route)

Thank you. your warm contributions are highly anticipated.�
