Peter Said:

Going to VUI (vancouver island university) but im american?!?! Please help -ill choose best answer-?

We Answered:

Here are the facts.

First, you must APPLY and be ACCEPTED by a Canadian post secondary college or university.

When you have a letter of acceptance in your hand, then you must apply to the Government of Canada to get a international student visa.

When you have been granted a student visa, you can enter Canada..

In order to get a student visa, you must prove that your have enough CASH money to be able to pay all your fees at school and also have enough money to support yourself in canada for 12 months.


International students, from any country, are not allowed to apply for scholarships in Canada. You have to be able to pay all the costs, yourself.

Here is a link to the Immigration Canada website, about how to get a student visa.

Marvin Said:

The Vancouver Island University MBA program in Canada?

We Answered:

Yeah, I'm from the Island, and I'm not going to lie. It was the school we all joked about. The school that would accept your deceased cat Fluffy if you filled out the application. The place you went if you failed out of all other BC universities. Low standards. It's your average community-college style place. They renamed it to get rid of that bias, but it's still pretty prevalant, at least where I lived.

It's recognized. It's not got an oustanding reputation where people will automatically say "Oh, UBC or McGill" or whatnot. But they do recognize the degree.

I don't really think Royal Roads is a viable alternative to 'Pina though. They're not really in the same place. VIU is upisland. In Naniamo. A 2 hour drive north. Royal Roads is in the south Island. If you're looking to be in the north, VIU is pretty much the only way to go. If you're looking at the Island in general, UVIC is definately your best bet, Royal Roads and Camosun are also there though.

All universities are good as long as they can teach whatever you want to learn and they love to teach all they know.
