Please help me to make the best decision of my life... U of T killed me
Hello guys
I would like to take some opinions regarding my situation
Am an international student from Germany who did grade 12 in Canada and got a midterm mark of 88.8%. I applied to Mcmaster Engineering 1, Ottawa U for chemical engineering, Western for Engineering, and U of T track One. I got accepted to all the programs that I listed except U of T Track One which was my first and ultimate option due to the reputation of U of T outside of Canada and since am an international student, I will probably work abroad after I graduate. I called the admission office to ask them about the reason for the rejection and they said that a lot more students applied this year compared to previous years which then made the cut off average so high even for civil engineering which the easiest to get accepted to and because my spf wasn’t that good, but however the admission office said that I have a chance of them reconsidering my application if by the end of the semester my average increased to at least 92%. Anyway my questions are
1- I forgot to ask them how to that, like is there any type of letter i have to send to them so they reconsider my application?
2- And is it really possible to get accepted after the reconsideration or is it just waste of time?
3- i got an alternative offer from u of t for physical and chemical science, if i accepted this offer, can i change my program and transfer to engineering after first year?
4- I know that at McMaster, you cant choose which engineering program you want to do, so is it easier to transfer from McMaster engineering after first year to U of T and get a chance to decide what i want to study at U of T?
4- What if I accepted one of the offers from either Western, McMaster, or Ottawa U, is it easy to transfer after the first year? And which one of them would be the easiest to transfer to U of T?
5- I was thinking of applying again next year so I would have a chance to volunteer more, work, and improve my English, and I know that U of T doesn't take repeated courses so I will only focus on volunteering and improving my English language skills. What do you guys think of this option?
Thank you for reading all of this and please help me to decide what to do.
