i am actually planning on moving to alberta after highschool, and id like to go to a university there. Would it be harder to get into a university in alberta then it would be in my own province. (new brunswick)
would it be really complicated.. impossible?
It’s not any more difficult to get into a university in another province at all. Some universities charge more for people that are from other provinces though, but usually not a huge amount more. All you have to do is find a university in Alberta that you want to go to and apply, you can apply online for most universities. Go to http://www.univsource.com/ab.htm for a list of universities in Alberta along with links to their websites.
I wish to study Law in America, preferably on the East Coast, say Washington DC or New York, that sort of area. I am currently studying AS Levels in college in South Wales. How would I go about getting a place to study Law in America? Would a British degree achieved first be preferred then a conversion course in America? Any information on this topic is very welcome, for I am very confused. Thank you in advance.
to do law in usa - u need a pre-law degree - a 4yr program doing a BA in anything. with a BA then u have to sit for LSAT qualifying exam to enter a law school.
unlike uk- u need ‘a’ levels to enter a LLB. so u save 4 years.
its doubtful if they will accept u without a BA. so far they have not accepted anyone without a BA.
this is part of the great american dream - law/medicine are all privileges accorded to the rich kids!

I want to become an anesthiologist( general) and I heard that you need to complete 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school, and 4 years of residency training. Now to complete my college years can I go to johns Hopkins university to get a masters degree? What would my major need to be? I heard that you can’t get a degree from jhu, it’s only for like research education, is this true? And would it look good that I went to jhu and got a masters degree from there?
You earn a bachelors degree in 4 years, not a masters degree. A masters program is an additional 2-3 years after the bachelors. You do not need a masters to go to med school. Yes, you can do your 4 years of college at Johns Hopkins. You can major in anything and go to med school as long as you take the premed courses (it’s not a major). Johns Hopkins does a lot of research, but still offers undergrad degrees like every other school. Or you could do your undergrad anywhere else and apply to Johns Hopkins for med school after college. You don’t have to find a school or hospital specializing in anesthesiology until after medical school.
I dont really like California, so I want to leave the state for university but is it weird to go to a public university in another state? (Im thinking of a public university in another state as like as a backup…) I only moved to California 3 years ago though…Im actually English.
Absolutely not. I go to Michigan and we have tons of international students even, PLENTY of out of state kids. Bear in mind, though, that as an out of stater you could pay as much as double or triple the tuition of in-state students. It may be wise to still consider some California schools or maybe some out of state privates (who sometimes offer better financial aid packages.)
I am a dual national Irish citizen, born and bread in England. The costs to go to university in England are expensive here and am wondering if it is cheaper in Ireland.
I am taking in to account tuition/education fees, and are there any grants/low interest loans available. I am not counting the cost of living.
A university course rangers from about 1000 to 1500 euros yearly on fees.
Banks do offer student loans but you would have to have a history with them.
As an Irish citizen there should be county council grants available. They are means tested. And you may need to have been resident in Ireland for some period.
1) Contact a county council student grants dept in the county where you wish to study
2) Contact the prospective university for loans/grant advice, they are usually very up-to-date on what is available.
State instead the University of Iowa?
No, what’s most important is that you take your pre-reqs and do really well on the MCATs. This is what will determine whether you get in more than which school you choose.
I want to go to Liberty University, but the place is just so expensive. How do LU students (or prospective students plan) afford the high price? I have entered some scholarship essay contests, but I have no clue if I’ll be able to win anything…
Apply to FAFSA early (the earlier the better!). Try to get the grants.
Some get a loan and then spend 30 years paying it off.
Basically, getting money to go to university is work. Keep applying to scholarship, EVERY single one. Shop around for the best loans.
Contact the university financial aid office, they can help you find more resources to pay for your college.

Just wondering how often you go home during University? How often do you call home while away at school? I was just wondering because I go home about once a month and call my mom once a week, do you think this is excessive? I am afraid I am being too dependent upon them when I am supposed to be becomeing independent.
Not excessive at all. I remember some weeks when I’d talk to my mom at least 3 to 4 times. I also lived close to my school so i’d go home several times a month…some more than others.
I was thinking the University of Minnesota. What is some good colleges for a Dance major?
The thing about majoring in dance is that you need to find a program that has some expertise in your particular style of dance. Some uni programs are very much ballet-centric, for example. If you’re a modern dancer, that could be an issue.
Dance Magazine publishes an annual book which is all about what different colleges offer in their dance majors. You can get it off their website. A lot of people find it very helpful.
In general, some broad universities that have strong dance programs - but again, I don’t know if these are a fit for you - include Point Park U, Marymount Manhattan, NYU, Arizona State, Florida State, Ohio State, SUNY Purchase, U Michigan Ann Arbor, U Kansas, U Oklahoma, Temple, U Arizona, Indiana U Bloomington, Butler U.
