Do you have a background in food science? Your average is very low for a masters program so be aware that your chances are pretty low.

i have pharmacy background so it somehow linked with food science and the requirement for masters in foodscience is 2nd division which means 2.45 cgpa so still my chances are not good?

Food science is not really related to pharmacy. That is the minimum GPA to apply but would imagine that the actual admission gpa is higher. You can apply but it is not a normal choice of masters degree given your pharmacy background.

Your marks are pretty low for any Canadian masters degree honestly.
Hi,
I am a pharmacy graduate from Myanmar and my IELTS score is overall band 6. I have 7.yrs pharmacy working experience in Singapore and planning to apply for Pharmacy master program . I have emailed to university n they replied me if I have working experience and my ECA equivalent to 4 yr Canadian Bachelor degree of pharmacy science, I don't need IELTS score. So do you think I am eligible to get an admission of Master program?
Plz advise. Thanks

Yes you are, except that the feedback from the University is not guaranteed admission, it means you are eligible to apply. But if your grades are low, competition may knock you off. And if you pass through that, VO officer will review and make decision, considering that

There are 2 obstacles both gaining admission and getting approved for a study permit. Given that you don’t live in your home country it will be quite difficult to show how getting this masters degree will lead to career advancement in your home country. Would add that if your goal is to practice pharmacy in Canada, Canada has a surplus of pharmacists.
