SFU University

Admission

I targeted the top 200 school in the times higher education list. SFU was not there. However, a friend of me was doing Msc there. He told me about A.Prof Greg Mori. That was great favour from him.
I applied in SFU. Nothing special. No emphasize on GRE.
I got offer after 2 weeks! I was on pending list of one of other USA universities (e.g. all offers are given, with first one reject, I will get an offer).
I played safely and accepted SFU one. I felt Canada well be better than USA. Also Greg mori work & profile encouraged me lot.

Almost everything is organized,
The staff gave contradicting comments on my Visa status. Even the Insurance number employee! But finally managed the issue.
They need more orientations on the insurance and its details.
You should depend on yourself to understand the country...life will learn you much

So different than Cairo University. You have specific # of hours to cover weekly
Department, The Doctor and the supervisor asks you to be careful about your time..."You are here for research"
Dr Diana showed much care with fare grading for students. She designed assignments by herself. I liked that much.
TA role was soft for me in 1st term. I was in Into to programming.
