The reason I chose northeastern university is because of the curriculum they are providing. They provide us with laboratory experience and pre Co op experience so that is beneficial for future job requirements.

Scholarship:

No I did not receive any scholarship for northeastern university and back in india the college was not providing any scholarships for local students.

Brock University really stood out for me when it first set foot in my high school for conducting a seminar for it's various programs and that their business as well as accounting programs had placed alumni at the best firms around the country itself and brock was my first choice incase my plans of studying in the US fell apart. I like the program's diversification and how well planned it is along with it's practical technique of educating current students.

Scholarship:

I got the Brock Scholars Award for 1500 CAD/ Year. Renewability was subject to marks from following semesters.

To do MBA was my dream from a long time. I was looking for options in USA and Canada. Since I applied for Jan intake there aren't many options available in Canada as major intake will be fall and Canada has limited universities unlike US.I applied for Brock because it has good co-op program and option to complete general MBA. At that point of time I didn't want to choose any specialization and Brock has this option of completing general MBA.I got admits in US universities though but my main reason to choose Brock was because of its location in Canada. As MBA does not come under STEM in US the opt will be one year so I choose Canada to avoid any immigration issues in US.

Scholarship:

I received Dean of graduate studies entrance scholarship of 1000$.It was given based on my percentage in undergrad degree. I applied for other scholarships as well but didn't receive any. I wrote any essay stating why I would be needing a scholarship.

It is in an amazing location with great professors. I also knew people who went here that I really respected and heard that it was the best school for my program. I fit in well when I came to visit this school and liked the overall atmosphere and environment. It is a fun and educational school that I really enjoy attending.

Good co-op program. I was offered some incentive to attend money wise but the main reason I went to Brock is that I have family in the area and I was able to move in with them to save a lot of money in living expenses.

Had a great program and scholarship! Child and youth studies is exactly what I would like to go for and it was offered as a 3-year degree which is fantastic. The size of Brock is also perfect for me and it just felt like the right place.

Scholarship:

The scholarship was offered at acceptance. This made it really nice and easy for me and I automatically received the money in my Brock account.

Brock was the closest to home but also was the best looking campus that I had seen and that instantly drew me in. I had done a few program tours and knew that I would have the best time at Brock. I also have friends from high school who are upper years in the same program, as well as my high school track coach who is an alumnus for the same program.

Scholarship:

I had received an entry award and a bursary. For Brock, we have 'OneApp' which goes through different categories asking different questions and matches you to applicable scholarships, awards, and bursaries. This is available to all students and we are to update our application every August.

There are many reasons. Job satisfaction and study are main reason.

Scholarship:

No and I guess no one received scholarship in this scholarship.
