Yeah You can find jobs in Halifax pretty easily. My cousin did a Ph.D from Dalhousie and today he is a professor in University of British Columbia. Dalhousie is a very good university just don't look at the rankings. I got admitted in Undergraduate and they even offered me scholarship and a Tablet PC. ;D

@ vijai

(1) I have applied for visa and visa process takes almost 2-3 months in Pakistan.So just waiting 4 visa

(2)Total tuition fee for 2 years is 23,100 $ which mean that per year fee is 11,650 $.Also remember 650$ health insurance for 2 years.

(3) What i have heard is that part time jobs are almost easily available but it depends upon luck,network and hard work.Not very much sure about it.

(4) My profile is
B.E Telecommunication ( 67%)
12Th Grade ( 67%)
10th Grade ( 86%)
IELTS ( 7 band with no band less than 6.0)
CCNA Certified
CCNP Certified
2 Years relevant networking experience.Still doing job in networking department of an organization

Note: One of my friend got admission in JAN intake in Internetworking without providing IELTS as IELTS is not must for internetworking applicants.However u have to provide a letter from ur institute that all bachelor education and course was in english.

@ vijai Check fees given on internetworking department 's website under program overview Tab on left side.They clearly mentioned that fee is 23,100 $.

Even i ,myself asked to Ms shelley,Program administrator, about so much fee difference on both websites and she told me that she was not aware that other website ( Fee Calculator ) is showing so much fees.She said that she wuld take necessary actions to change it and it looks like she did nothing.

Anyways i am sharing fee detail given on my official acceptance letter.hope it wuld be helpful for you

Total tuition = 23,100 $
Health Insurance (Per Year) = 636 $ For Single
Health Insurance (Per Year) = 1560 $ For Family
Books/Supplies ( Per Year) = 1400 $ (Estimated)
Cost of living ( Per Year) = 15000 $


You can get all information related to Dalhousie internetworking and i strongly suggest you to check this group on Facebook i:e DALHOUSIE University Help Group - ( DUHG )

wish you best of luck

Regards
