[Ash26hardy]

Hello everyone,
I'm new to this forum and I would be thankful if you help me decide which among the following is a good university for ME in Mechanical engineering. My profile is as below

10th - 75%
12th - 79.5%
UG(B.E. Mechanical)- 7.99 CGPA(2011 passed out with no backlogs)
IELTS - 7.5 (individual scores not less than 7)
GRE - N/A
Work experience - 2+ yrs(production engineer)

I've applied for university of ottawa, western ontario, dalhousie and Concordia. I've chosen my specialisation with relevance to design & manufacturing.

I need your opinion based on university reputation for mechanical engineering and chances of landing a job with relevance to my area of specialisation. Thanks in advance...

Plenty of Jobs for Mech and production.. job is only cause of concern for guys with IT background
By Rank Ottawa is better than Dalhousie and more process oriented, but it depends on you.

Appreciate your response on this akshay8990. I did keep dalhousie as my last preference but what bugs me is the cost of tuition and living. Any insight on that? Thanks again.

Dalhousie is cheaper considering location of University. So go for it if you need to save money.
Ottawa is heart of Canada (capital), expect more expenses but again more job opportunnities
Considering Tuition fees.. it sums to same amount, difference off 1k -1.5k !!! per term

I guess there are pros and cons for everything... so where are you applying? What course?
