@@MeMe-tn7qc what was your average?
@@dailypauie hey thanks a lot! Amazing video
@@alejandraaalbanil I’m actually from India so our system works a little different. Indian central Board is kinda very difficult so most unis just want 75-80% average. Mine was 94% so yeah
got my acceptance a week ago....trying to get some need-based aid so that I can attend
Same here bruh
What is the fee for this university?
How long did it take for you to get your acceptance?? It’s been 5 weeks since I applied :(
@@aaryabhikru3495 I got my acceptance after about 6 weeks of applying
@@aishanirfan742 sorry for bothering ya but did you receive a mail or your Ucal login just got updated ?
Yes I want you to make a video on schedule builder
I have been accepted in UCalgary and I am going to start next year! of course I will use your tips =)
Wonderful! I'm glad it helped. Good luck!
What was your average??
Hi! I’m an international student, and I was wondering how much the tuition fees and living costs combined for an undergraduate is. The information on the websites are confusing Lol.
Hi! The tuition fees for every program varies bc each course taken have different fees so I can’t give you the exact ones but I can provide some rough estimate. I think for every semester tuition fees would be around $6000. For living fees it depends because you may have living different living expenses. So, rent would be around maybe $400-$500 per month and then you will usually they would ask for damage deposit before you can rent a place. However, living expenses would be more expensive if you are planning to stay in campus residence because for first year students they actually require you to have a meal plan. So, that gets included on your fees on top of everything. Let me know if you want me to make a quick video about living experiences. Thank you and good luck.
@@dailypauie Thank you!!! Yesss a video about living experiences will be highly appreciated!!!😁
A little update, I got accepted into UCalgary today!!! Do you happen to know any social media group chats for prospective international students? Thanks!!!
@@yxvngjaythegod8448 Yeah sure!!! How can we get in contact?

Hiiii!! I really wanna move there for medicine. But I was wondering, how are hijabis treated there? I'm really scared to move in fear of being judged!
Heyy can u attach the link to the interactive room finder app plss
Unfortunately I would love to do 5 courses but it will increase my tuition so no way I am doing it.
By the way I am an international student
Great content. How long does it take to get a feedback on application?
I did my application 7 weeks ago and get feedback 2 days ago.
Thanks so much thinking of applying in summer of 2021
Best of luck! 💪🏼💪🏼
Hello Pauela! Ur videos are really informative. I have watched ur various videos and want to ask about 1st year course registration process that is it compulsory to set up a "ucalgary email ID for student" or it will automatically set up on its own after registration ?
Should I Apply If I Meet The Minimum Grades, like they are asking high 80s for Indian students and i have 85.
Hi! It totally depends on you. I do not know much about how they evaluate but it gets competitive on some programs esp on the popular ones but there's no harm in trying. I would apply if I meet all the requirements, to be honest. If you're trying to apply for the next school years, try applying around fall season (sept-december) bc I think you'll have higher chance during those months since there's still not much competition. Hope this helps. Keep safe!
Please can I get a video about scheduling for Actuarial science program or a faculty advisor contact
Please do an enrollment vedio
thank you, this was so helpful
Glad it was helpful! :)
Hi... I'm an international student and may I know the fee structure for Masters in immunology ? It would be really helpful to hear from you
Go and check the university website
I’m sorry but I don’t have sufficient knowledge about masters. I think it would be on the university’s website but if not, I’m pretty sure you can set a virtual appointment with the advisors.
@@dailypauie thank you ☺️
@@Arya-yd8tmthank you.... it's not clearly mentioned and that's why I wanted to know

Hi I'm a future International Student hopefully by 2021. May I ask you if I should take the IELTS before application?
Hi! I’m not sure but I remember when I was still trying to get in to the university, they told me that if I didn’t go to high school here, I’m required to take an IELTS.
Yes, I’m an international student and they’ve asked me my IELTS score. They want minimum 6.0 score. But if you don’t want to attend IELTS you can do Duolingo exam.
Hey !
I am going to attend u of c this fall and since I am going to attend on student loans I would like to ask about the job prospects after graduating in cs ug
hey im also goojg for cs ug'
@@mohammadsoomro975 nice dude . You got your letter ?
I assume you're talking about CompSci? I honestly have no idea about that. Sorry! I'm pretty sure they have a page on instagram or facebook, although I do not know what their handle is.
@@Idk-km2yv yh dude, have you?
@@dailypauie can you talk about the residential options there are,
Hey , I have applied for Master's course in engineering, I have 7 bands in IELTS , and 8.64 CGPA, do you have any idea about the chances of acceptance according to my profile? Thank you🙂.
@@satkarmarahatta719 yes, got accepted for sept 2021 and got approved for study permit....
But not in University of Calgary....
@@satkarmarahatta719 I got admission in Concordia University, in industrial engineering.....
hey im thinking about applying. How many terms are there? and approximate tuition cost? I'll be an international student btw
Hi I have a question, Im planning to apply for civil engineering and the website says the competitve addmision average is mid 80s so around 85. But my overall average is 80, do you think it is possible to be admitted! Thanks fellow Filino here btw! :D
I am too going to apply for civil engineering there, good luck!
@@gannahyasser726 are you going next year? Im grade 12 graduating
Hi! It is possible but it will be helpful to keep in mind that engineering is a very competitive program in U of C. Nonetheless, I will encourage you to apply for admission. There's this phrase I heard from a mentor before and it says, "Let the admissions team decide for you because that's their role. Your responsibility is to apply and wait for their decision." Good luck! Hope to see you next term, Kabayan! :)
Good luck! Hope to see you next term :)
@@dailypauie do you mind telling whats your average
Hey could you please tell me how much time does uni of Calgary takes to send offer of acceptance ?
Hi! I'm not sure how long it takes them this time since there's a pandemic but when I was applying, I got mine in January when I applied in October of the previous year.
I did it in December I believe and found out January. It usually take 4-6 weeks!:)
Would you please give us tuition information for international engineering students
google lol
Hey help me for my doubts for applying in uofcalgary
I'm having doubts if I'm ever going to graduate in UofC! jk LOL
I'm working on a video on "why you should go to u of c" but it's gon take long before it gets uploaded :/
okay kidding aside, just think of it as "the more choices I have, the better" kind of thing. Then take a day or two (after you got all your admissions) to decide which Uni you think is the best for you. But if you have applied to a lot already, I do not think it will be worth it. Hope that helps! :)
Nice video
Hi should I take IELTS test before applying in University of Calgary? Thank you so much. I hope you can help me please
Of course u have to!!
Hi! If you studied from Grade 10 in Alberta, then you do not have to. If not, I assume you do. However, for more specific questions regarding IELTS, you can send an email or call the admissions office of the university bc they know better for sure. However, make sure you ask them all your questions at once because they take too long to reply, for some reason. Hope this helps. Keep safe!
Are you mainland Chinese?
What grouos did you join???
I was in UCFSA for a little bit, and also in WISE.
Would you please name those supporting organisations please?
Hi! One support that I think is really helpful to me is the Wellness Centre in the University. Hope this helps. Keep safe!
Where'd you apply for the bursaries?
For any scholarship, bursaries, and awards affiliated with the University of Calgary, they will "automatically" consider you for all the awards you're eligible in once you completed the information they asked for during admissions. However, once you're already a student, you'' have to apply for all the awards I think around June-July yearly. They will ask a bunch of questions about your extra curricular, grades, volunteers, etc. then that will be stored in their system. That also serves as your application. They are the ones that will see if you're eligible for any of the awards/bursaries/scholarships, then they will notify you about it and prolly ask you for more information if needed. Hope this helps!
Heyy abt how many courses do u recommend i should take in a term??
Hi! Hope this response still serves you well. I would recommend 4 courses max in fall and winter term. Then maybe 2 courses per spring/summer intersessions. I found that this way, I can still spend time with family and friends and do stuff I wanna do. I also realized that I barely get burnt out now that I stopped taking 5 courses per term. Hope this helps! Good luck :)
Heyy tnxx a lott:)
Hey Pauela. I really want to go to University of Calgary and I am an international student. Can you please share any tips about the application process or how to get in?
P.S. I have already paid the application fee and sent my transcripts but yet to hear back from the university..
Please help
Thanks a tonn!!!!!!!!
Hi! I barely remember anything about how I applied but if you have any specific questions, I am more than happy to answer them!
Hey, I also have little bit confusion here, if can help. I applied for Master's program and I already paid my application fees and deposit as well. Now not sure what should I do, as per application they asking me to schedule but I didn't yet get my offer letter (so really really worried). I have emailed to university as well. They said they will evaluate the docs and let me know. But as per portal my todo list is clear.
@@hirenking25 UofC takes a ton of time to process applications. I applied last year (i.e. before the pandemic) and still had to wait a really long time to get a response. They often asked for documents out of nowhere when I thought my application was dead.So I guess you just have to be really really patient with them but going to ucalgary now I'd say the wait was worth it...
@@parthmehndiratta8943 @Parth Mehndiratta Thanks for reply. I am really curious to knw everything about calgary......but paitence is my only option ask of now I guess. I got last email form UoC written same: everything is clear we will get bck to you with offer letter once we evaluate all docs....your patience is appreciated appreciated...
@Parth Mehndiratta And want to know have u applied for Jan intake 2021? And which course u applied for if u don't mind?
Hi, I am from Bangladesh. Please help me by giving information Master’s programme of UCalgary. I've completed my undergraduate and postgraduate in Economics @ 2012 & 2013. I would like to getting admitted in any business courses of Master’s. What will be the yearly tuition fee? I've heard that cheap cost courses about yearly CAD 3700$, is that right? Pleade inform me. Thanks
Hi! I really have no idea about the cost of the Masters program. Maybe you can find it on their website? If not, I recommend you email them and just make sure that you send almost all your questions, if not all, the earlier since it usually takes them long before they can reply. Sorry, I hope this helped!
Hey, can I get an email of one prof of petroleum department please? Tkx
Hi! I'm pretty sure that have contact emails in their website. You can look up in google the Faculty they're in and there should be a list of professors with their emails. But if this does not work, there will also be chat functions in their website where you could chat with a student advisor about your questions. Hope this helps!
