Hi, everyone
I m dhaval patel and want to come to Canada for MPharm/MS… I m
planning to give IELTS, Please tell me
what are the minimum band i need to get into good colg… What is
good for me Mpharm or MS for me… How lately can i give the exam…
what are the final application dates… and plz list me some good
colgs
Hi there Dhaval,
I'm glad to hear that you're interested in studying in Canada!
Here are some schools you might interest you:
1. "Toronto Institute of Pharmaceutical Technology ":http://www.tipt.com/
2. "Dalhousie University College of Pharmacy ":http://pharmacy.dal.ca/index.html
3. "University of British Columbia, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences ":http://www.ubcpharmacy.org/
Keep in mind, different schools have different admission requirements. The best approach is to look into each school for a complete idea of what you need in order to be admitted into the institution.
The University of Alberta's Master of Pharmacy and Master of Science program for instance, requires a minimum admission average of 3.0 in the last two years of undergraduate an equivalent qualification from a recognized institution. Also, applicants must obtain a minimum score of 550 (paper-based), 213 (computer-based), or a total score of 88 with a score of at least 20 on each of the individual skill areas (internet-based) on the TOEFL test, or a minimum overall band score of 6.5, with at least 5 on each band on the International English Language Testing System (IELTS).
The decision between a Masters in Pharmacy or Science will ultimately come down to your preference. Research the different programs and the type of opportunities available in the long-run. Take into consideration the professors, campus, and services for International students.
Early applications for Fall '09 admission start in March. Now is a good time to start researching and familiarizing yourself with the processes involved for studying aboard. I encourage you to join LearnHub's Study Aboard Canada community to take advantage of the information and material available there.
I hope that answers your questions.
Good Luck!

Hi this is swathi.i want to know about the details of the biofuels.which universities are offering biofuels as masters in canada.what test is required for it.plz let me know,all the details.
Hi Urswathi,
I'm glad to hear that you're interested in studying in Canada.
Biofuels is any interesting area. I'm not too familiar with this major and so it's great to learn more about it as I research for you.
It seems that there aren't many schools in Canada that offer a program in the Biofuels area. Although, there is extensive funding being placed into biofuel researching.
Can you please elaborate more on this concentration?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks!

Hi,
Is GRE required for masters in Pharmacy
also? or only toefl is sufficient?
As MayMay mentioned above, most Canadian universities require both a TOEFL and a GRE score for admissions from international students, and those that don't require it would usually strongly recommend it. If you're looking for a masters in pharmacy program in Canada, taking the GRE is a good idea- find out more about it here.
Dear miss may may
I am a pharmacist from Iraq, I graduate on 1998,and I will come to
Canada as a refugee next month, my question is what is the
requirement the college need from me to allow me study to get a
master degree in pharmacy in addition to my documented certificate
in pharmacy with over all average of the 5 years study 59.19 and
60.2 for the last 2 years and the IELET
certificate with score 5.5 intermediate in (general type
EILET)? is it enough for the college with
those scores or it require an exam before I can enroll in the
college? with my respect to you and thanks for your help
Generally, to gain admissions into a masters degree in pharmacy, you'll need a bachelor degree and a GRE score. I'm not sure whether Canada recognizes pharmacy certificates from other countries, I know that general medical designations and other professional designations are generally not recognized. You might have to take a certain exam, though I'm not entirely sure. If you do have a bachelor degree you should be fine. You'll also probably need proof English, so you'll have to take the TOEFL. I suggest you contact a Canadian school and ask them.
dear maymay
i m pharmacist from india
i have done with my ielts that is 6.5 overall
i hav clear gre with 1030.
i want to take admission in gud university at canada

fees per semester
part times n scholarships hw to get scholarship best approches
wht r the scope in canad a after doin mpharm there..do v require to
clear any exam to work thre
can u give infor regarding student visa of canada n there after pr
procedure..
reply is appriciated ..
The Universities of Toronto, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and British Columbia all offer a Master of Science in Pharmacy.
In order to be a pharmacist in Canada you need a Canadian degree, you have to pass the Pharmacy Examining Board of Canada exam, and you'll probably have to complete some Canadian experience in terms of working as an intern for a while.
To apply to university, just contact their admissions office and they'll provide you with the necessary information. The admissions for Fall 09 are probably closed, but you may be able to make it into the Winter 10 term or later. You can also ask the schools about scholarships and they'll be able to give you more information. Visit our scholarships community too for additional resources. Once you're admitted you can apply for a student visa, your school may be able to help but generally you'll have to go through the Government of Canada website for the official procedure.
Good luck with everything!
i want to do mbbs course in any usa college and plz give me its fee stucture
Hi,
In the United States, students wishing to become doctors study first for four years, generally in programs referred to as “pre-medical studyâ€. These “pre-med†programs are offered by over 500 colleges and universities. At the end of the four years, they receive the Bachelor degree which allows them to apply to medical school. The medical school program lasts four years: the two first years are devoted to the basic medical sciences and the last two years concentrate on clinical training including practical training in hospitals (clerkships). While there are hundreds of universities providing pre-medical education (for the first four-year cycle), there are only 124 medical schools (for the second four-year cycle).
For this reason, competition for admission to American medical school is very intense, even among American students, where, in general, only one application in two is accepted. This means that foreign students’ chances of being admitted to American medical schools are very slight indeed. It is estimated that 10,000 â€" 15,000 American students who were not admitted to American schools are studying medicine outside the United States. Foreign students are seldom admitted unless they have completed all of their premedical training in the United States.
The Association of American Medical College’s publication Medical School Admission Requirements, which lists admission requirements of each school and provides statistics on admissions, out-of-state admissions and foreign student admissions, may be obtained from A.A.M.C., 1 Dupont Circle, Washington, D.C. 20036, or may be consulted in the Commission’s Advising Center.
It is strongly recommended that applicants from other countries who wish to study medicine in the United States complete their pre-medical college work in the United States. Applications should be made directly to the undergraduate colleges that customarily prepare students for medical school. To be considered for admission to a medical school, an applicant must usually have a baccalaureate degree. This “premedical†curriculum normally consists of: psychology, 2 years of biology, 1 year each of organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and physics, as well as English, calculus and mathematics.
The Medical College Admission Test is a multiple-choice type examination designed to measure the applicant’s verbal ability, quantitative ability, general information, and scientific knowledge. Completion of this standardized test is required for admission to all medical schools in the United States. The examination is given twice a yearly in April and September, at designed centres throughout the world. For further information concerning the MCAT Registration,, The American College Testing Program, P.O. Box 414, Iowa City, IA 52243. A limited supply of registration form is also available in the Advising Centre of the Commission. Applicants are advised to take the MCAT in April, 18 months prior to anticipate registration in a medical school.
Application is made either to individual schools directly or, where required, through the American Medical College Application Service (AMCAS). At present, 105 medical schools participate in AMCAS. Information on AMCAS can be found at : www.aamc.org…
Students of foreign medical schools need to get a ECFMG Certification to be eligible to study and practise in the US.
Hope the above answers your queries.The best approach would be to finish your MBBS course here and get a certification examination cleared and apply for a VISA to US for further studies or you can try to apply for pre-medical course as mentioned.
So here is my suggestion for you…
1) Medicine is called MD in US.
2) Write SAT
3) You need to complete 4 years of Bachelors in Biology/science to apply for medicine.
4) After that apply for MD (apply for MCAT test and get good scores) - very difficult to get admission - dental may be easier.
All the best.
hello all…
I’ve just completed my b pharmacy and am planning a masters in US.. i would like to know the fee structure for various universities ? ? ? and also the fee for accomdation in college campus(hostel) ??
is it advisable to stay of the campus with sharing or in the campus…??? as i would be a complete stranger there …!!!
thank you !!!
Hello,
Please find below the response to your queries :
The tuition fees are variable as per the choice of the program
and the university as well. Also, when it comes to health/medical
related fields the expense incurred is higher in comparison to the
fields related to engineering, arts etc. For your information the
tuition fees can vary from $18,000 to $ 30,000 per annum.
Similarly, the cost of living varied on the location. For instance,
the cost of living in California, New York is very high in
comparison to Texas, Indiana etc. You may consider approximately $
1000 per annum in general.
While considering accommodation, I always suggest international
applicants to start of with the option of being On campus, making
choice between the Halls of Residence and the students hostel
whereas the off campus accommodation includes Home stay,
Apartments, Flats.
Though staying Off Campus is much more economic than staying On
Campus it is always advisable that the student should stay on
campus for the first six months since off campus staying would
leave you absolutely on your own from the very beginning on a new
land.
The other option that you should definitely consider while deciding
on accommodation is getting to know of the same from the
international applicants already enrolled in the university. They
can offer you the real picture. You can look for the students
association (Indian Student Association) that can be handy to get
the contact details of the seniors.
I hope the above specified takes care of all your queries.
Take care!

Hey!,
In addition to the above said, please note if you plan to pursue a career as a pharmacist in Canada, it must be remembered that unlike most of the countries, the registration of pharmacists does not occur at the national level.
In order to practice pharmacy you must be licensed or registered in the province or territory in which you will work. Each province in Canada is responsible for issuing a license to practice pharmacy in their own province. To know more on the same, please Click Here
Take care!

Hello,
If you are considering higher education in Canada, then irrespective of the state / city in mind there are certain eligibility criteria that are common to majority of the Canadian universities.
While considering a masters degree you are expected to submit scores on the standardized test GRE and as an international applicant you need to prove your aptitude in English by taking either of the English Proficiency Test (TOEFL / IELTS). In fact of since you already have a score on IELTS that is preferable over TOEFL you need to prepare only for the GRE and get ready with the admission requirements.
Since a good number of Canadian universities offer the program of your choice, I would recommend not constricting yourself to one specific location. However, since you seek specific information on University of Toronto, please note the university offers a Masters in Pharmacology and Pharmaceutical Sciences.
The departmental requirements are listed below :
• Minimum GRE scores at the 50th
percentile ranking are required in the Verbal and Quantitative
components and a minimum score of 5.0 is required in the Analytical
Writing component.
• Minimum overall score of 100 on the TOEFL Internet-based Test (IBT) with 22 in both writing and speaking or minimum
score of 7.0 on the IELTS.
• Transcripts
• Reference letters (3)
• Curriculum Vitae (Outlining academic background,
awards/scholarships, publications and conference
presentations).
I hope this helps!
Take care!
