Tuition in canada? There are no lot of scholarships and Assistantships in Canada like the USA. One can easily go and interview in Canada while in the USA. Get nominated for express Entry by a county or Company and then apply. It will be more easier. First, you have got the American experience which is obviously going to be an advantage wherever you want to go. Second, just as we all are saying, there are no lot of opportunities in the USA, the few ones might be meant for you.

NwanyiOkpa:


USA we go then.

Meanwhile, can one apply for canada skilled federal program after masters in USA? Any idea?

Stevenssen:
You can't talk about 'reality' and refuse to put out facts for those that ask to know more. The Canada you're talking about is very difficult these days.


Yes it's true that US is more tighter on visas and immigration than before. But students will still come in. Anyone that wants to know info on all these should Google it and you'll learn a lot by yourself.

LagosismyHome:


Once a system gets tight... the the question should be asked is it worth going there especially If you are spending a lot of money and dont want to come home soon. ...... probably not for hard earned money

if it full or partial funding then no problem then maybe ok

Wretch32:
it will be more easier than when you schooled in canada, did post study work with canadian work experience and then applied
Is that what you're saying?? Loool

Hello everyone, good evening/morning. I appreciate you all for a great job done here thus far. I’m new here, and I’d like to ask some questions....

I just got admission into Texas tech Uni (department of political science).. I got an offer as a TA to online graders. The assistantship comes with a stipend of $10,000 for the period of 9 months (which I can’t really make sense of)...

The admission and offer came few hours ago.. I wish to seek your individual opinion, based on experience overtime about the funding (check attached), before sending a mail to the graduate coordinator.

Thanks

NwanyiOkpa:



Congrats! What's the tuition fee?

brashear:



Congratulations on your admission. How much is the tuition fee? and does the $10k stipend virtually cover your living expenses if not all?

Evans211:


About $30,000.. The assistantship obviously doesn’t come a long way. Not a fair deal I bet..

NwanyiOkpa:


Total expenditure amounts to what?

Evans211:


Here is the stats

LagosismyHome:


The grammar on the offer self .... my brain couldn't process, maybe it because its morning

This offer will it reduce the tuition to instate or cover some in addition to the 10k

The offer is not so good but you can't reject it just yet.

Wait for the other schools decision and weigh your options.

Evans211:


Exactly my plan. But will still have to mail the grad coordinator and see..

What can you make out of the offer therein? Cause I’m not understanding sef

Evans211:


Here is the stats

Evans211:


I swear I don’t even understand. I will have to b honest and ask them that what part of the expense does the TA offers

LagosismyHome:


Pol science so not bad... some none research programs are hard to find funding so I would say it's good news. Something however small is better than nothing.. .

But make sure you understand fully what the offer is so you make informed choices. Congrats

Predstan:


The offer obviously covers his/her tuition excluding the Stipend. See this Sentence "Reinmburse, your tuition and fees". This is a funding that covers majority of your living expenses if not all, and completely waives your tuition

eetzdave:
Im sorry but I'd have to disagree with you on this..I think this sentence "along with the remission of all but a part of the tuition and fees" means only a part of the tuition is covered..my interpretation though

Predstan:

This really made a whole lot of sense to me so far.
Although I’ve emailed the GC for clarity and I await his response.. looks like a fair deal to me now..
