If you leaving for Canada to do masters in either Queen's or UWO for Fall-2014. Let me know. I am still confused as to which one to accept.

Program: MEng in Mechanical.

I have applied UWO for the mentioned intake... Yet to receive my offer letter though... Have you received the offer letter for both? How long was it for you to receive the LOA?

Yes I have received acceptance letters for both. For Queen's they took a month and for UWO it took them about 3 months to arrive at a decision. UWO is considerably expensive when compared to other universities.

I applied through a consultant. They said that without GRE, my chances of applying good universities were limited. So I had to go with UWO, UOTTAWA, DALHOUSIE & CONCORDIA.

No man, never trust consultants. Most of the time they know nothing.
