Re: Studying in Canada - need help!
 

Hi all,

Thank you for the help.

I did go the Bunac option back in 2005 and I got a job in one of B.C largest law firm withing 3 weeks of arriving. Due to my experience they hired me right on the spot. They didnt even advertise the job! I had a look through the yellow pages for law firms in Vancouver and called them explaining my situation and if they had any jobs available.

The law firm was called http://www.harpergrey.com/firm.html

Once my 1 years visa expired i came back to the u.k as I had other commitments

So all in all im want to take a business course at college it dosnt havbe to be university as i know they are strict on past education. It just amazes me that if I had poor grades when i was a child it means i cant improve myself in life by going to a college in Canada. You would think that as long as you had the money to pay for the course they would be happy.

It also amazes me that a simple question has started such arguments!! Why do use brits have to moan and groan about everything. I just wanted some helpefull advice from other members that have been to college in Canada that didnt have amazing G.C.S.E's

Thank you :thumbsup:

Have you tried applying to any colleges? Try it you may be surprised. As an International Student you will be paying high fees...colleges/unis like this. The fees you pay just may balance out your lack of qualifications. Go on do it...apply to one or two and see what happens and don't forget to let us know what happens. Good luck.

Many colleges have different assessment methods for mature students without formal qualifications. APEL, accrediation of prior learning, so its worth a try.

Re: Studying in Canada - need help!
 

They dont accept International Students under the mature student status.

Re: Studying in Canada - need help!
 

yes they do - or do you mean they dont do APEL ? cos i think they do too. Have you tried?

Re: Studying in Canada - need help!
 

They definitely do. I will be at least 27 when I commence my study in Canada.
