hello NL brethren. i am new here and actually from the canada thread. i was denied twice and my friend in the US suggested i try applying to the US. although i would have thought that the US would be much more stricter than canada he thinks its worth giving it a try. i have a 2.6 GPA(which seems to be my hindering block from getting good admissions in canada) in Elect/Elect Eng. and i know the basics that i would have to write GRE and TOEFL, trying to arrange those. but i am still generally clueless even though i will eventually read through this thread to know more. please when do sessions begin? is it january, may and september like canny? thanks

I also did something similar like this for my California state Uni application. You need to check previous graduate catalogues of your program & also the current graduate catalogue (2015-2016). normally there should be a sample ''proposed program of study form'' cuz for mine, there was a sample and I just used it to fill mine. Its more like course registration and allocating credits for each semester but i think it can still be changed when admission is given

Thank you sir. Can't find a sample though but i guess i'd keep looking. I appreciate.

Instant you know if you are denied or granted visa and if granted it takes 3 working days to get it done and you collect it back if no technical error..

Student need one way ticket and your school determine the health issuance

Nope. Black and white works pretty fine. Don't listen to those riff raffs at walter carrington. They just wanna eat your money. Ensure you print all your docs and take all your passport photographs before you go for your interview. Prices for printing and passports are 10x the normal price at the embassy.


thanks love, I will be there tomorrow. wishing myself Goodnews

Best you check for schools that have their minimum gpa requirement between 2.5-2.75. And also write one of the tests. So basically its to get the schools with your gpa quota, before then going on to other things. btw what program are you applying for?
