Best Canadian Schools for Econ/PoliSci

College Search & Selection

<p>I'm not sure if this is a good forum for an American looking to go to a Canadian school but whatevski. I'm looking for recommendations based on my likelihood of being accepted into them as well so here are my current stats (I'm a junior in high school so they're very incomplete):</p>

<p>Junior Year: 4
Sophomore Year: 3.7
Freshmen: poooooop, my old high school was an awful place. </p>

<p>AP US History: 4
AP Politics & Government: 5
AP Lang Comp: 4</p>

<p>Community college grades (so far): Econ 201 - A, Phil 101 - A, </p>

<p>Extracurricular:
I did Debate once. If this is important, I'm screwed. I find almost all extracurricular activities to be trite and uninspiring.</p>

<p>Volunteering:
I spent 40 hours volunteering for the Idaho Democratic Party for the 2010 elections. I'd guess that this would show an important activist streak for someone who is looking to get a degree in PoliSci. I also do some volunteering at a thrift store. </p>

<p>Rec me up some Canuck colleges bros. Oh and I'm Latino. I'm assuming that Canada doesn't have affirmative action programs to the extent that Americans do for obvious reasons, except for natives.</p>

<p>I know this thread isn’t as sexy as Yale vs. Stanford or other ivy league threads but I still need some help here.</p>

<p>I’ll try one more time: any recs? I’ll take recs for American schools too at this point.</p>

<p>Sorry i dont have any rec for Canadian schools for you but for US schools i tjink you might be interested in Georgetown, Amherst (a posci friend of mine is studying there). There’re many schools strong at econs, say Colgate. I dont have many names to list now. Do research, pal. Good luck</p>

<p>Canadian schools are not hard to get into, unless you are talking about specific elite programs. What type of campus are you looking for? Large, medium or small? Urban or rural?</p>
