Most of the educational institutions in Canada are government run. Few of the standout universities for business, science and technology is University of Toronto. Probably one of the oldest and arguably the best ranked Canadian Universities. Few of the other popular universities are University of Waterloo, University of West Ontario, York University, Concordia University etc.

About easy Immigration

Generally a student can apply for their immigration after a year of continuous stay in Canada. There is a twin phase of application where the immigrant will require to apply to the Nova Scotia for a 1stround of screening and then apply with the complete set of immigration documents to one of the Canadian immigration offices. The process is pretty straight forward and easy to deal with. For more information you can definitely read at http://www.cic.gov.ca

    Can you please provide some information regarding getting scholarships / TA ship / RA ship from the very beginning of education? I mean, do I need to contact with professors for such assistantships? Where can I get them?

    Another question is: Is it possible to continue my Masters in Computer Science in Research Based Masters? Where I can also get some money for my daily needs? How to get that?

  16. I think the grade conversion given here is not correct, I've checked the grade conversion tables of many universities in Canada, so please correct it to prevent heartache for some students……….

  17. Thanks buddy for posting this article. Canada is one of the top destinations in the world after the United States. You are perfectly right about the ease in immigration. But at the same time Canadian universities have stringent admission requirements. Due to lack of requirement of GRE or other standardized exams, they weight applicants on their annual percentage. Not everybody have high scores in their under graduate education. The scores highly vary between the states when talking about Indian applicants. I believe If you get admit for right programs from top universities such as McGill, UA, UBS, Waterloo or University of Toronto, Canada have a very prosperous future to offer!
