Hi, I’m a transfer student with GPA. 3.5. I have a situation that got accepted in UT dallas and Concordia University in Montreal. My sister lives in Montreal and my family prefer for me to go and live with her. But I have UT dallas that I had plans for. I really don’t know any suggestions and comments would be appreciated.
I honestly know very little about Concordia University in Montreal. But I will give you some advice about what I know. The UT system is huge and having that degree from a UT school is very recognizable. If you plan on living and working in the US I’d say go for that. If you plan on living and working in Canada go to Montreal. From what I have found, Canadian schools are often an “unknown” to US employers despite the fact that they are often academically superior. Also, don’t let your family influence your decision. College is supposed to be about you and if you want to go to UT-Dallas and you think it is best for you in the long-run, go for it.
Best of luck making a decision!
Thank you for your help! That actually helped me a lot and told me a knew aspect that I haven’t think about it.
