Let me guess, when you walk through your tunnels, you don't need to worry about crazy physical plant drivers?

I'm not sure where you get your facts from bud :rolleyes: But UofO has most of its buildings connected, meaning that there are many ways for us to get from class to class without freezing :p First year I didn't even have to put a coat to get to most of my classes.

JB

[Bright Eyes]

You people have no right to complain about how cold it gets in the winter.

Invitations are open to walk with me to class in January during the -40's.

Ed.... you guys have tunnels too. Like ALL of the university is connected by tunnels.

What are you complaining about? :confused:

[Gopher]

Mine isn't!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But then again we are only one building.

[DORT]

My school has tunnels, but
1. I live off campus, SO I still have to trout there
2. 3/6 classes I have are in the building thats not connected.
3. Its cold next to the ocean.

-cdort

[Jesse Zillman]

I agree with Bright Eyes, Winnipeg can get cold, but so far this year its been very nice.

[F/Sgt. Steele]

lucky kids and their tunnels... i have to cross a bridge over a river to get to most of my classes.

[J. Gleiberman]

lucky kids and their tunnels... i have to cross a bridge over a river to get to most of my classes.
Your first hint should have been that you accepted at a University named after a river.

Every school I have been to has had tunnels. It seems that someone had to give the Engineering students something to do.

[F/Sgt. Steele]

i didn't have any idea that it was named after the river till i got here. so much for orientation.

[Bright Eyes]

Then you havn't been to the Maritimes.


Then again ... it takes a whole 5 minutes to walk entirely across campus at Mount Allison. But it is a PAINFUL 5 minutes ...

[Mere Fraser]

Western here... woo for BEd!!

All my classes are in the same building and I almost never have to go to main campus so Im set. Brock was good too... there arent tunnels but you can walk from one end to the other without having to go outside!

[DA Wright]

I just finished a BEd from Brock as a second degree, but attended all my classes right here in Borden. Too bad they cancelled PEP.

[*Jaimie*]

I'm at the Fisheries and Marine Institute of Memorial University Of Newfoundland (to be formal!! lol) or just MI to those who are familiar. I'm a first year and am planning on doing the Nautical Science program! woot for me!

Hey! A really good friend of mine is doing his BEd at Western. His name is Kyle McDavid, and he's a cool cat. :)

[Pyro]

Hey now, it gets that cold here in the winter too. Or at least it has in the past :p

JB

Blah, don't remind me! :rolleyes:


Yeah, tunnels are great and all - once you get to campus... Blasted 25 min walk! :p

[AMothfromWpg]

UO'Toba = Utopia = awesome that I just figured that out....
Anyways yes, 3rd year - major to be determined - though I suppose it'll be Political Studies with x as a minor simply due to the number of courses I've taken in it....
Having no focus sucks. Alot. Hard.

I'm out of my BEd. Good golly, but I hated it. Application in for MA (History) to commence in Sept. 2006. Huzzah!

[Bos'n101]

I'm at Nipissing University in North Bay, currently in my first year of my History degree. One of my room mates is moving out at the end of the school year, and I'm looking for a replacement. Great place, right on the main stretch. If anyone will be in town next year, give me a shout for details. Rent is about the lowest you'll find in town.
Oh, his departure will also leave an openning for a BandO at RCSCC Brilliant, if anyone is interested.

I applied to:

*deep breath*

- Brock (Arts: History)

- Ottawa (Arts: History)
- St Thomas (Arts: History)
- Mount Saint Vincent University (Arts: History)
- Dalhousie (Arts: History, and Community Design)

Got accepted to all... and thinking it was a waste to apply to so many now. :P Waterloo didn't give me urban planning like I wanted... so I am thinking I am going to Dal for it (they call it Community Design though).

[Chief Hoult]

Ewww, Dal? ;)

Kidding. Fine Institution :) Plus it's out East! Bonus++

Definatly the out east part is nice... Plus Halifax is awesome.

I applied to:

If you end up choosing STU - feel free to ask me any questions. I'm assuming history is your intended major for now? Once you get a year under your belt you may change your mind so be open to many options and try a lot of things. If you do history at STU though - Do NOT take Professor Luc Walhain. PM me if you have already applied for his courses and want to know why I say not to. For a general idea - I am an A student and have A's in every course except history (my best subject in high school) in which I have a C. Everyone else is the same way.

Thanks for the offer!

But I have accepted Dalhousie's Community Design program. I can't wait till the fall. So Stoked. :p

[TiffanyAbbott]

I applied for CBU, and was accepted so I'll be going there in the fall, and I'm happy =]

Hey sis! Fancy meeting you here. I applied to Mount Saint Vincent University for Peace and Conflict Studies. Not sure what my minor will be...but i'm leaning towards History.

[Shippy]

The heck is with all these MSVU people!?

Its like the most hole-in-the-wall university in this country! Or is it just one of those 'they accept everyone' deals?

(I applied as a bit of gag myself...)

[Chief Hoult]

A friend of mine who used to go there calls it "The Nunnery" (large majority of girls).

Apparently a very good PR program...?

CH

[Happy?]

I'm less than 10 hours away from finishing my first year at Carleton University. The major you ask? Political Science with a concentration in Canadian Politics.

[Murrdawg]

bah, Ottawa U and Carleton, almost all Quinte area people go there... I myself have been accepted to RMC but I have my PT test next Tues.

Well that was a bit nasty. I tend to like their Peace and Conflict Studies program...is there anywhere else that offers that course?

[Chief Hoult]

UofT, I believe, does.

CH

Yup, most gals to guys in the country (84 to 18 or something like that according to Mcleans). The PR program is supposed to one of the only english speaking ones of its kind in this country. It is apparently good.

(Note: I didn't mean it was a bad school. I think its a rather nice university, and I have visited it a couple times. I just mean that hardly anyone knows about it, yet apparently quite a few people applied!)

[Pyro]

I'm less than 10 hours away from finishing my first year at Carleton University. The major you ask? Political Science with a concentration in Canadian Politics.
Yay Political Science at Carleton ;)

I'm done for the year :D

[RMC 24409]

Political science is really good at OttawaU too...Don't forget OttawaU.

[Chief Hoult]

Usually depends on the particular branch of PoliSci that you're interested in ;)

CH

[J. Gleiberman]

UofT, I believe, does.

CH
Yes it does.:)
By the way what is wrong with U of T?:mad:

[Chief Hoult]

Your just a part of a VERY big number... its the biggest University in Canada with over 63,000 students. If you don't mind that, its a great school!

(Personally, I prefer something smaller... :p )

[Sarah]

i personnaly really apperiate a smaller school... hense why i choose St. Thomas to get my Arts degree.

[Shippy]

i personnaly really apperiate a smaller school... hense why i choose St. Thomas to get my Arts degree.

Pretty much the atmosphere is why I applied there too. Unfortunatly, the problem with smaller schools is they don't offer a huge variety of courses... So I settled on Dal, its not as big as most universities (10,000, most 'large universities are considered around 20,000).

Regardless, I am happy with my choice, and I can't wait.

[Chief Hoult]

I imagine you'll really enjoy Halifax :) It's hard not to.

CH

[Shippy]

I imagine you'll really enjoy Halifax :) It's hard not to.

I love the city... the best part of going to Acadia was the trips to Halifax. And every time I have visited that city since, loved it. The only thing is, I guess I will have to learn to hold my alcohol... :rolleyes:

[Gopher]

10,000.........wow that's big

I have 817......total full time, part time, undergrad, masters.........everyone

[Shippy]

10,000.........wow that's big

I have 817......total full time, part time, undergrad, masters.........everyone

817!? Wow, thats tiny! :p

Still really don't think 10,000 is that large... I went to a high school of about 1,500. The 63,000 at UofT is just rediculous though, mind you its broken up over 7 (I think) campuses (spelling of that?!)...

[Chief Hoult]

The only thing is, I guess I will have to learn to hold my alcohol... :rolleyes:

While most parts of you will love Halifax, normally the liver does not.

CH

[dee-jawng]

Thanks for the offer!

But I have accepted Dalhousie's Community Design program. I can't wait till the fall. So Stoked. :p

I'm takin' Planning at Waterloo right now -- it's good times. I applied for Dal, and got in, but it seems like Dal focusses more on urban desigs, whereas Waterloo has a more comprehensive program. Anyways, good choice! Resource studies doesnae seem like it's very interesting, but it may just be me...

[J. Gleiberman]

817!? Wow, thats tiny! :p

Still really don't think 10,000 is that large... I went to a high school of about 1,500. The 63,000 at UofT is just rediculous though, mind you its broken up over 7 (I think) campuses (spelling of that?!)...
Actually U of T is in three campuses: St. George, Scarborough, and Mississauga (formerly Erindale). It has eight full time Arts and Science colleges UC, VIC, St. Mike's; Trinity, New, Innis, Scarborough, and Mississauga. One part time Arts and Science college, Woodsworth. However if you are in Arts and Science at St. George you will be lumped with the rest, so yes the numbers are intimidating, but the end result is you can enjoy a mix of experiences. By the way my first year psych course was 1,500.00 students alone.

And on the topic of large class sizes at UofT, it doesn't really intimidate me. I mean, seriously. I don't ask questions during lecture anyway, and most of the interesting stuff you learn happens in the tutorials. So yeah, no real problem there.

Anyone else going?

[a.wang]

i think UBC has one of the highest acceptance averages in canada. haahah

I'm doing a Bachelor of Commerce at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology in Oshawa. Its all laptop based and pretty cool, thought its a little touch to pay attention in class.

I took a year off before I went to school, and went from wanting to do Engineering to Commerce, and I'm loving it. I'm really glad I planned it all out that way. Though, I still regret not going to Carleton in Ottawa like I had wanted too, but UOIT is working out great for me now.

Currently at l'U de M (Université de Moncton) Campus de Shippagan. Planning to go to l'U de M Campus d'Edmondston in Fall 2007 and l'U de M Campus de Moncton in Fall 2008. So I'm basically going to all the three Campus of l'U de M.

[Cowie]

yeah yeah for all the U d'Ottawa people here!!

[Parkkrap]

well i've put in app to UBC vancouver and okanagan yesterday and trying to put in to manitoba and carlton university....... hope i can get accepted to all of them... cuz i wanna go to UBC the most

[LDoubleU]

Sending in applications to UNB Saint John, U of T, McMaster, UPEI, Laurentian (Sudbury), and U of M by January.

[VanZeumeren]

Sending in applications to UNB Saint John, U of T, McMaster, UPEI, Laurentian (Sudbury), and U of M by January.

What for?

I'm at UNB Fredericton for my MA. It's great, I found out that there's funding available for my research trip to England in May.

[LDoubleU]

What for?...

Bachelor's Health Sciences (Radiation Therapy). If not RT, then radiology. And thats for all the universities except U of M.

[Cheryl Tucker]

I am in Engineering at Dalhousie...I started at Saint Mary's University though ( it is just that in Nova Scotia you have to do your last two years at Dal no matter where you start)


At DAL? Or can you go out of province?

[Juice]

At DAL? Or can you go out of province?
I think that the user means that if you go to ANY unversity in Nova Scotia, you have to do that last two years at Dal.

If you go outside the province, then that doesn't apply to you.

The system seems kind of odd to me...

JB

[Cadpat Sailor]

I will be applying to UBC, UAlberta, Western and Dal in 2007 for Masters of Library Information Science, and if I can wing it, a MA in French ... or to RMC as a MBA student.

[Mr G]

I'm currently getting through Computer Engineering at the University... looking forward to this Tuesday when it's all done for a couple weeks

[Parkkrap]

i applied UBC, and U of M for applied science, hoping to get Bachelor of app sci and after that ENDs!

[anthonee1230]

UBC Engineering next year.

Not entirely accurate. Acadia has the same program that they were talking about (as does St FX) where you do two years before going to do your engineering degree. I have friends who have finished their two years here with their CAS (Certificate in Applied Science) and then gone on to out-of-province engineering schools (such as McGill or UofT) although most will go to UNB or Dal.

The way the program works is that if you have a 'C' average, you are guaranteed admission to Dal or UNB engineering (at least, that is the case for Acadia students with their CAS).

[Legionnaire]

Well, I gots one more semester at Dawson College, then I'm trying for History at McGill.

[BigGunz]

Yeah McGill Dollis. I hope to attend either there or University of Ottawa, not sure yet....

[Legionnaire]

Yeah McGill Dollis. I hope to attend either there or University of Ottawa, not sure yet....

Come to McGill, man. Montreal is a waaaaaaay more happenin' town than Ottawa.

[VanZeumeren]

Come to McGill, man. Montreal is a waaaaaaay more happenin' town than Ottawa.

UNB's got a better history program than either. Go there!

[Juice]

UNB's got a better history program than either. Go there!
That's subjective :p

I've rather enjoyed the History program at uOttawa :D

JB

[BigGunz]

UNB's got a better history program than either. Go there!

No thanks Sir, no offence, but New Brunswick is not very appealing to me.

I guess I will apply for both schools ( McGill and UOttawa)
However, I will have to make my mind up soon. It's tough because I want to become a Lawyer, ( Either PoliSci for Bachelor or History) and I have two cousins who have attended Law school in Ottawa, and they say it is great, and that there is plenty of things to do outside of school. On the other hand, Montreal is a really fun city. Best thing to do is go visit both campuses and residences or something to see for myself.:)

[VanZeumeren]

If you eventually are thinking Law School in Ottawa, I would, personally, advise against going there for your undergrad. Half the fun of your undergrad is that its 4 years in one location, then you get to move on. If you do your undergrad and your law degree at the same place, you're talking 7 years in one place. Considering that this is the time to travel/see the world, it would make more sense to do it elsewhere.

From a more pragmatic standpoint, a smaller school might also be a not-too bad idea. You can get great letters of recommendation, because your profs have a better chance to get to know you, and it is easier to get involved in leadership activities on campus.

That's just my one, brief, standpoint though :)

CH

[Juice]

Only if you got to U of O!
The same could be said about those that go to UNB ;)

JB

That's what I was thinking. Maybe UnderGrad at uOttawa, than Law School at McGill or UnderGrad at McGill and Law School at uOttawa?
Well I guess time will tell, in the meantime I'm going to visit uOttawa and McGill pretty soon, than I will make up my mind.

Thanks for the helpful Tidbits:)

[Hobbes]

Speaking of universities... has anyone heard from them yet?
I've been admitted to Ottawa University for a Major in Philosophy, and to Dalhousie for a General Arts degree. I'm looking forward to hearing from the rest of my choices!

[Kmart]

I know I was planning on going reg forces, but I have since found new priorities. I am hopeing to go to NSCC next year. I hope to take Law & Security, Human Services and Corrective Service Concentration. I think I am looking at 3 years and about $30,000.

[113 Cox'n]

I'm going to the University of Alberta

It's alright, but first term is always hard, it'll get easier

[113 Cox'n]

Wow, i just noticed theres alot of u of a students. lol. GO U OF A!

[LDoubleU]

Bachelor's Health Sciences (Radiation Therapy). If not RT, then radiology. And thats for all the universities except U of M.

Wow, I cant believe that I've misread a career description over and over again... :banghead:

It turns out radiology is more of operating the machine than diagnostics (which i thought it was in the first place), so i feel it's not as much as a challenge. If i was to go into diagnostics, thats 4 years undergrad plus 4 years medical school plus 5 years residency.

Good thing I had so many Plan B's, C's, and D's to begin with. And I finally got it all planned out (and it's not gonna change :p). It's Physiotherapy or Pharmacy at U of M, although i have to take first year sciences beforehand.

[Jessie_bandgirl]

I've had the plan of pursuing a career as a physics teacher. I have to take a B.Sc and a B.Ed, so I decided that UNB is my best option (Queen's or U of M are my secondary options if all else). Six years ^^, it isn't too bad, but I know I'll be repaying the loans to my grave :lol: .

For those of you who want to be teachers, you can take a test and start your cocurrent program right away at UNB, that way you can bring it down to only five years. For most cocurrent students though, an undergrad is impossible to avoid, unless you prove you can handle the two degrees at one time.

[Jessie_bandgirl]

Would anyone know if Queen's University has an online application form?

[LDoubleU]

www.ouac.on.ca (http://www.ouac.on.ca)

It's one application for all ontario universities. There's a book of three-letter codes for each program, find the Queen's one with the program, set up an account, fill in the application, then send it.

[Cadpat Angel]

I'm at Nipissing University in North Bay; I applied through OUAC. I'm going through for Criminal Justice, specifically for Corrections.

What's interesting with this particular stream within the program is that you spend 3 out of four years at Nip taking law and justice, sociology, (etc) classes, then another year at Canadore College taking their Correctional Worker Program. So, when all's said and done, you graduate with both a degree AND a diploma.

A concurrent degree sounds great, but virtually every person I know that took that program at UNB hated it and had nothing positive to say. From what I've heard, the consecutive option, though a year longer, is better. That said, you don't have to do your BEd at the same place as your undergrad, so it can't hurt to see what else is available. PM me if you want some particulars on the UNB BEd, I spent some time in that program.

[Insane Power Pilot]

It's alright, but first term is always hard, it'll get easier

No it won't. :banghead:

Well, it depends what you're taking I guess. History gets easier.

[Bos'n101]

Well I've decided to make a change. I'm still at Nipissing University in North Bay, but this September I will be switching my major to political science. Sorry Juice, but history just wasn't my calling.

[Jessie_bandgirl]

I actually do have other ideas in mind, but staying close to family is a huge bonus when considering a campus. Besides, if I do apply elsewhere, such as Queen's or U of M, then I do have to refuse the scholarship I got...
It is hard to refuse temptation when you already have acceptance :(

[Jessie_bandgirl]

btw... GO PHYSICS!!;)

[Happy?]

I'm still at Nipissing University in North Bay, but this September I will be switching my major to political science.Glad to hear Nipissing finally has a full polisci program. I finished 2 years at Canadore and I was mildly impressed with North Bay at the time. In order to make the leap to full-time polisci, I had to head south to Carleton.

In hindsight, it was the best move I've ever made. Is there something big keeping you in North Bay? If not, at least glance at either uOttawa or Carleton.

[Kohler51]

A concurrent degree sounds great, but virtually every person I know that took that program at UNB hated it and had nothing positive to say.
I really don't know anything about UNB, but I'm currently in the Concurrent Education Program (1st year) at Trent. It has its ups and downs. Major downer: money. I'm paying almost an extra thousand dollars (per year) in tuition...which is killing my bank account. It is also extra work (since you're doing an extra degree), and it feels somewhat useless at times. Major upside: we don't have to jump through as many crazy hoops to get into the consecutive program (from what I've heard talking to some consecutive students, who were saying how it's crazy competitive...keep in mind that this is all hearsay). So I don't know, I know some people here who think it's the best thing since sliced bread, and others who think it's a total scam... I fall somewhere in between.


History gets easier.
Honestly?? 'Cause that would be fantastic since I like it a lot already, and if it gets easier, all the better!!:D

Thanks for the advice. However, there is something big enough for me to stay in North Bay for the time being. When the time comes to decide about my Masters(should I decide to proceed in that direction), Ottawa will be on the list, but so will a few others, like SFU.

[Bubbles]

this april im finishing my college programme. afterwards i've decided to take time off from school and see the world.

[Sp0r3]

i applied UBC, and U of M for applied science, hoping to get Bachelor of app sci and after that ENDs!

good luck! im in 1st year engineering in ubc right now... and let me tell you, you will hate your timetable when you see it. right now, i have classes from 8am to 4pm with half an hour break inbetween. compare with arts and science, engineering has the worst timetable. and things wont get any better... year 2 mech is crazy! hopefully i can stay in ubc long enough to experience the horrible timetable XP

btw, i see ALOT of cadet-affiliated people in ubc.. some are ex-cadets, some are current cadets, some are CIC officers, some are CIs... i always find it odd when an officer that you know walk up to you and calls you by your first name.... it feels ackwards... but its interesting at the same time!

funny... i'm at Dal doing first year engineering, and while I'll admit 8:30 every morning having physics (or something too similar for my liking) really isn't the best of situations... my schedule isn't THAT intense... seriously? 8-4 everyday? and only a half hour in-between? have fun with that :)

well... my timetable is overwhelmed with lab sessions and tutorials. unless i skip one of my tutorials or classes, i only get half hour break. i have hardly enough time to do anything. im currently running on sugar and caffeine because i only get to sleep for 3 hours a day if im lucky... so much work, so little time~ or maybe cuz im a slow learner, not too sure -.-

i've been asking around my friends that are taking engineering in different universities and so far my timetable is the worst. hopefully my 2nd year is more relaxing~

[Chief Bosn Chick 5]

Well it's not a University...
Camosun College Practical Nursing Class of 2007
Done is September... WooHoo!
but then is have to wait 6 weeks for the results of my licensing exam... but it'll be worth it in the end

[dhillon]

Double Degree Program!!

BMath - University of Waterloo
BBA - Wilfrid Laurier University

Class of 2012

[Dandurand]

I am applying to go to the University of Winnipeg for fall 2008. I plan on doing a 4 year BSc (Honours) in Biochemistry. Then its off to McGill for 7 years after that!!

[lone bugler]

im in University of Western Ontario first year for biomedical sciences

im in first year with no major or minor lol because i have to reapply to the medical program in second year XD

[Zakout]

I am most likely going to be attending uOttawa in Fall 2008. I am torn right down the middle between two programs...
1. International Studies and Modern Languages
2. Translation.

Both are very interesting, and are very useful with high employment rates after graduation. :banghead: I'm torn.

I know someone from when I was at OttawaU that's just finishing up her Translation program. PM me for the contact info if interested :)

- I was in Intl stud & Lang. for a semester and I found that I wasn't doing much of poli science in first year (which is a craving of mine), with this program you learn one language and you need a proficiency in french (OttawaU policy I believe).

[Juice]

Second Language proficiency is no longer a requirement at uOttawa.

JB

[RMC 24409]

Second Language proficiency is no longer a requirement at uOttawa.

I heard that trough some grapewine but I didn't confirm it. Did they they also changed their motto of: "Canada's university" :rolleyes: ?

...Apparently not...What do they have against Carleton now?

- RMC is the only university in Canada now that requires a proficiency in both official languages.

[Juice]

- RMC is the only university in Canada now that requires a proficiency in both official languages.
I have a feeling that has more to do with the fact that the CF requires a certain second language proficiency for its RegF Officers than because it's specifically a bilingual university.

I'm more saying that by sheer pride than anything else. Too bad they took that out from the requirements tough, it was giving them more an identity.

[The Boatswain King]

I just applied to:
1. Wilfred Laurier University
2. University of Waterloo
3. University of Guelph

All for Political Science and hopefully to double major with Global Studies :)

[Aprile]

That's really exciting! Do you have one that is your preference?

[Shaw_Cable]

yah i know ime still a LC but i want to go to RMC

[Huet]

Here's my preferred List:

1.McGill (ROTP) - Bio
2.Ottawa (ROTP) - Bio
3.RMC - English - Psych - Mil. Studies
4.McGill (ROTP) - Psych
5.Ottawa (ROTP) - Psych - Anthro
6.St. Francis Xavier - Bio

[jefferson]

I go to university of Ottawa my major is in political science

[Bill Z Fan]

yah i know ime still a LC but i want to go to RMC

you have to start a dream sometime ;)

[M. Arnott]

I won't go to university until fall 2009, but my plans for school are:

1. RMC-Political Science
2. UNBC (ROTP)-Political Science and Womens Studies (If I don't ROTP, I will probably go to UNBC anyways, but do my Poli Science and Womens Studies degree then get a BEdu in secondary education).
3. Carleton (ROTP)-Political Science

one question...why carleton for poli sci when uOttawa is closer to the action?

[M. Arnott]

Well Carleton was one of the first ones I looked at(plus they offer big scholarships). However, I am looking more into different universities and their admissions and all that.

My list could change.

[Legionnaire]

I'm currently at Concordia University doing a Major in History and a Minor in Classics, though I'm trying to get changed to Honours History.

[Cadpat Sailor]

UBC, French
Universite de Montreal, Francais et Histoire de l'art

[pat16]

I am thinking of applying to UdeM ( Universite de Moncton) here in New-Brunswick to become a history teacher but... I am not sure anymore. For some reason, I am having my doubts and something is holding me back but, I don't know what.

[Megan]

Applying to university in Ontario just makes me want to kick my face in for not working harder in Grade 11. >.< Applications are due January 9th, so they won't have any idea how awesome I've been this year!

Does anyone know where the $105 goes when you apply through OUAC? I was thinking about it earlier... it's all done online, so I would think the administration fees would be considerably less (I'm also a bit grumpy because I'm paying $40 just to apply to Memorial).

Here's my list:

1 - Bachelor of International Business @ Carleton
2 - Bachelor of Business Administration @ Memorial

And I'll have two others in Ontario, once I look into it some more. Most definitely business-related, and hopefully in some sort of marketing concentration. I feel like I've sort of betrayed myself, though... I had my whole life set up to go to Memorial, but I was looking through Carleton's programs today, and I've fallen in love!

The competitive scholarships (that is, they will fight with other universities) are really appealing, as well.

This year at UBC, they had a projected $35 million deficit, and one of the proposed "countermeasure" was to increase the registration fees. So, I think the money just goes to the university's coffers. It only gets worse when you try to apply to grad schools, my friend is going to spend $1000 on registration fees and entrance tests alone (He's thinking of applying to ~10 schools!!).

[Globemaster]

finals are comming, hows everyone's cramming going?

finals are comming, hows everyone's cramming going?

I never knew there were so many distractions..

Rolling my socks never seems so appealing..

[RMC 24409]

I have 12 credits this semester (same for the next 3 semesters at RMC), this semester, at the Academy, I have:

1 essay (8 p) - HH330
1 answer sheet (4 pages) to fill out + exam - HH386
1 answer sheet (3 pages) to fill out + exam - HH386A
1 exam - HH377B

[Flashman]

Almost halfway, just finished my second (of five). The only big, big one for me is tomorrow - International Relations.

[Megan]

Well, I finally applied.

Through OUAC:
1. Carleton
2. Guelph
3. Nipissing

Outside of Ontario:
1. Memorial

[Flashman]

I think the numbers prove that Guelph is the superior school - but I'm a little biased ;)

My girlfriend is also applying to Carleton and Guelph, and then a few others (McGill, Queens, and Dalhousie).

[Cadpat Angel]

Well, I finally applied.

3. Nipissing


Oooooh Nipissing! That's my school...:dance: What did you apply for, if you don't mind my asking?

[Megan]

BBA, Marketing stream. :)

[Dave McLean]

haha nice...guelph is a wicked school...if you get in and choose to go, you'll love it

and as Anderson pointed out....the numbers don't lie

[Juice]

Wow, I guess things have changed since I applied to university. I think I paid $80 or something like that to apply to any three universities, and then it was an extra $30 or something like that per university afterwards.

$270 to apply to university? Crazy!

[CRGS Cowgirl]

1. RMC - English
2. St. Mary's (Halifax) -English
3. Queen's - English

With RMC being my obvious "If I don't get in I will die" choice.
Im considering applying to Waterloo, Laurier, Carleton and Ottawa as well...

[Megan]

All my friends are complaining about having to spend $40 to apply to MUN and I'm like you all suck! I have to spend like $270 to apply to UOttawa & Carleton. For the Ontario Schools I'm applying for a bunch of different things like International Business, International Relations, International Development & Globalization.. (Common theme..possibly? haha)

Do you(girl talking about MUN) know that there is a International Business program at MUN too? I don't know the full details on it but there is a mandatory year abroad attached to it...which is pretty sweet :P
I couldn't find it anywhere on the website or anything... I applied for Business Administration.
