The admission process was not that difficult. Steps to follow or I followed: 1. Research what and where you want to study. 2. If necessary (for MS) reach out to different professors to get more details or get scholarships or TA or if the professor is accepting any research students or not 3. Give IELTS or other English exams (you can check based on University as some doesn't accept IELTS only, where you may need to seat for the different exam as well) 4. Based on your score - choose University & check the admissions process and all required documents. 5. Gather all the documents and apply.
Course Curriculum
1. My credit was 30 for my course at McMaster University - Master of Engineering in Manufacturing Engineering was 1.5 years with a total of 8 Theory-based and 1 Project-based. But you can opt out or in from the project. If you do only Theory then you need to have 10 theories. But having said that this may alter. 2. At McMaster Uni - you have the opportunity to choose the course you like, as I selected most software-related courses since I had 7 years of work experience in IT and after studying I got a job in the IT field as well. 3. Didn't get a chance to attend more personal classes due to COVID
Placement
In Canada, no University does on-campus recruiting. Hence, you need to create contact via Linkedin or other modes. Then try to find the job during 2nd term only as it's gonna take few months. Based on your degree or previous experience you might land to good or avg job. Avg job may pay around 50-60k.
Fees
1. I paid the first term's fees before applying for the study visa via Western Union online transfer. 2. 2nd & 3rd term fees paid via wire transfer. To send a wire transfer you can ask to Admin office to give you the University's wire transfer details.

Campus Life
Not much - since it was Covid time. But it is a big University and has every necessary thing.
Hostel
1. I stayed at a student housing near my University (off-campus). Though, it is better to check well ahead before to reach to Canada.
