Let's talk Canadian schools

<p>With ED decisions coming out and RD decision deadline approaching..I found myself behind on researching Canadian schools. The deadline for Canadian schools is also approaching so I thought it'd be nice to hear everyone's Canadian plans..(hopefully find some useful info too :P).</p>

<p>So, Which schools are you applying?
What program?
WHY?</p>

<p>Definitely:
Queen’s Commerce (applied)
UWO BMOS + Ivey AEO
UBC Commerce</p>

<p>Maybe:
UofT
McGill
York</p>

<p>& also UNBC (applied/accepted), but I’m not going!</p>

<p>Mostly because they are great in business or are overall great universities.
UBC <3 because it’s close to home!</p>

<p>I believe we have similar tastes, Fatum? :)</p>

<p>UofT
McGill
Western
Queen’s</p>

<p>But the only two that I am seriously considering of going to if I get accepted are UofT(SG) or McGill. But since the OUAC application lets you choose two more, I was thought, “What the heck. I’m paying 120$ so I might as well apply.”</p>

<p>And I’m applying for International Relations/General Arts/Humanities/Social Sciences depending on each university and what they offer.</p>

<p>McGill, U of T, UBC, Queen’s, and SFU for Linguistics/computer science/cognitive science. I’m thinking either McGill or Queen’s at the moment.</p>

<p>Haha yeah Starsaligned! :smiley:
I’m thinking…Ivey, Schulich, Rotman, Queens…however that’s just because they are the best business programs in Canada…NO IDEA at all where I actually want to go to.
Do you guys think McGill is good for business?
And…do you think I need safety schools…? I mean those 4 have like less than 20% acceptance rate…</p>

<p>McGill, McMaster, UofT, Queen’s, Western for Canada :)</p>

<p>Western & Mac.</p>

<p>McGill, Toronto, Queens, UBC, Calgary, Alberta</p>

<p>McGill is meh for business. Most people only go to Desautels because McGill as a whole is well-reputed.</p>

<p>Ahh IAmPos that’s what I thought! Everyone was like McGill is the “canadian harvard”…
rainbow viggy nosike why did you guys choose those schools?</p>

<p>I’d be a premed, so the reputation doesn’t mean much to me. Plus, I like Western and McMaster and the programs they offer. I feel that they offer good balances between name, competition, and academics.</p>

<p>If you’re considering McGill, you might as well check out Dalhousie University as well!

I’m not sure of their acceptance rate, but I remember knowing a lot of people in my first year who were Valedictorians of their rural high schools.</p>

<p>Waterloo Pure Mathematics</p>

<p>Anyone applying McMaster health sci?</p>

<p>@lindazhaang dang, good luck with that, it’s ridiculously hard to get into haha. Only 1 of my friends got in last year, and at least 15 or 16 applied. Hope you make it.</p>

<p>Mac Health Sci is probably the most competitive undergrad program in Canada. Good luck, indeed.</p>

<p>Hey guys, any opinions on Schulich BBA vs. iBBA? I don’t know which one to choose!</p>

<p>Which university is great for Business and Mathematics? I am looking at UBC but I want a backup school as well.</p>

<p>I’m so sick of essay writing after applying to the States that I refused to apply to any programs that required any sort of supplements…well except UofT I picked Victoria College, so I have to write something for that. =___=
I applied to McGill Arts&Sci and science (but I don’t even think I can get a 90s avg, let alone 91.xxx… = =). For OUAC, I picked UofT (life sci), Ryerson (fashion), and a couple of other schools just to make my parents happy. But honestly these 3 schools are the only ones I actually would like to go to.</p>

<p>^^ It is not a backup school - I hear the program is quite competitive - but you might be interested in [Programs</a> | Mathematics/Business Programs](<a href=“http://www.mathbus.uwaterloo.ca/programs/double_degree.html]Programs”>http://www.mathbus.uwaterloo.ca/programs/double_degree.html)</p>
