Canada has emerged
as an educational hub for students looking to pursue their post-graduate
degrees. Universities here offer students amazing opportunities to learn and
get experience from professionals from various industries. What’s more is that,
once you complete your course, there are amazing job opportunities for you to
choose from as well! These exciting prospects entice one to think about going
to Canada, and the first step to this would be figuring out the application
process of Canadian universities.
Each university will have its own eligibility criteria that students
need to make sure they qualify for before they start their application process.
The general requirement for every Canadian university offering post-graduation
courses is for the student to have completed graduation.
Some universities may even require two to three years of work experience
too. So make sure you check the eligibility criteria of the universities you
have shortlisted. The next point will cover the tests a student needs to give
for studying in Canada.
Students need to give language tests in order to apply to Canadian
universities. The most commonly accepted tests at Canadian universities are the
following:
International English Language Testing System (IELTS)
Test Of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL)
Michigan English Language Assessment Battery (MELAB)
The scores from these tests are accepted at most of the universities in Canada. Apart from this, tests like GRE and GMAT are also accepted in certain universities. Check which test scores are required and accepted by the universities that you want admission in, so you can then apply for those tests.
Pursuing further education in Canada requires a lot of planning since
you have to take care of a lot of things before you take this step. Here are
the basic documents that you should have:
Duly filled application form of the specific university
Graduation certificate
Resume
Letter of Intent
Bank statements
Once you have taken care of all the above points, you are ready to send
your application through. A common query that most students have is whether
they can send their application form without getting their language test
results. The answer to this is yes! The students can send in their applications
to Canadian universities even while they are awaiting their language test
results.
What happens in these cases is that, the universities then provide such
students with conditional offer letters. A conditional offer letter involves
the university offering admission to the student, albeit the student must meet
the terms and conditions of the university, albeit the student succeeds in
meeting the requirements of the university.
Lastly, universities’ accept applications from January to April, and
then from June to September. But each university has its own deadlines, so make
sure to check with each one so that you do not miss out on any deadline.
