apply for master in EE that you studied to get visa easily then when you enter Canada u do your favorite course in computer. Change ur cv to EE work experience during visa application.

Thank you for your response. I really appreciate it.

What do you mean by 'when you enter Canada u do your favorite course in computer' ? Do I approach the same school that provided an admission in EE and tell I them I want to change program? And how easy is this?

Good day Everyone! Can anyone here be kind enough to provide advice on my situation.

I have been a silent reader for some time now after several rejections from three canadian school ( carleton, mcgill, manitoba).

Schools and Programs i applied for:

Carleton - Msc Computer Science
Mcgill - Msc Electrical and Electronics
Manitoba - Msc Computer Science



My Background:

I graduated from a ghanaian university in 2009 (i.e. 8 years ago) with a BSc in Electrical and Electronic Engineering (2.1). In 2010, after my nysc, i got a job with a business solution provider that deploys software applications like SAP, Sage and have been there since then. I have 2 SAP certifications (SAP Business One and Incident Management with SAP BusinessObjects). Within the years, i have grown to love working with computers and more of the technical aspect (troubleshooting networks, working with operating systems, custom reports using SQL queries etc) of the job as compared to the business consulting part. I got an opportunity to look into studying in canada also with the idea of staying afterwards and started applying last year.

I understand that i don't have a background in computer science but was just hopeful that if i plea my case, and identify my roles and responsibilities over the years, i would be considered and probably be given the option to take some prerequisite course before the main msc program. Well, i guess i was wrong. At the moment i am not sure how to proceed and i am not even sure i would get admission to study electrical and electronics since it has been ages, my work experience is nothing close to electrical and electronics and i like to think 'that boat has sailed'.

Does anyone have any advice as i would not want to miss admissions for 2018.

Thank you guys very much.
