Being an International Student, you (or your parents) promised to go back to your home country after finishing your diploma. You are not eligible to work in Canada.

At what age are students required to claim, "mature student status" when applying to university/college in Canada?

This does not have much to do with age. It really just means somebody who is not applying right out of high school. It could be as little as a year later or it could be a retired person. Check the admission requirements of the particular university which interests you.

I just moved to Canada as a student.I feel so isolated and alone,can't make friends.What should I do?
I can't take it anymore, this is not what I was expecting. I don't have anything to go back to, still this situation is so depressing. I try my best to socialize and meet new people but none of my relations end up to be a good one, and they don't last long; so besically I don't have any friends!

dude, be a man and take it it's not by crying and asking support on the Internet you're gonna do something about it to your feet and grow a sack

My sister also moved to Canada and had the same problem. It will take a while, try to keep positive, it took her a lot of time to blend in, but eventually, she did.

Social skills can pretty much be associated around the subject of emotional intelligence: http://www.google.com/search?q=emotional+intelligence+articles&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.yahoo:en-US:official&client=firefox-a I found I had to get rid of all negative thoughts and words for a while, we live in such a negative world now. Especially negative thoughts about people. They almost seem to be able to read you mind, gestures and facial expressions that come out when you think negatively about them or even life. I would definitely look up some things on positive psychology, attitudes, people/social skills and the like. It seems that you and I just have to learn the hard way, but everything broke for me when I decided to help people and developed intuition. We all use intuition more than we realize, but learning how to do it right shifted everything in my life to the better. I think it will have that affect on everyone. Here's a hint as to it's importance in thinking straight: http://intuition.viviti.com I attribute all my troubles from not listening to my intuition and learning how to use it.

Geology Student Going to Canada: Where to go?

Geology Student Going to Canada: Where to go?
I'm a geology student that will be traveling all over Canada by Rail this summer. Where Should I go? I'm planning on Spending a few days in Toronto and Montreal on my way out to Halifax with a day or so in Truro. From Halifax I'll go where is easily accessible by bus. Then on my return I plan to spend another day or so in Toronto and stopping in Jasper before heading back to Vancouver. Can anyone recommend sights, hostels, activities to do in any of the names cities or locations??

If you are a geology student you should try to go to Drumheuller Alberta. Alberta - especially around Calgary would be a great place to visit. Do not expect to to find a place in a Youth Hostel, they are full in the summer.

I would definitely recommend going to Banff, Alberta. I think its just a bit south of Jasper and it's absolutely beautiful!! We went there almost 5 years ago but I still remember it. We stayed at a good hostel, and although I can't remember the name there was a restaurant attached to it called Cougar Pete's, so I'm sure if you searched that you could find it. It had great rates and a huge stone fire place. Oh and I'm from Ottawa and I would also suggest you come here. It's a biggish city but not as huge and crazy as Toronto and Montreal. There's also a lot of activities and festivals here all the time, try the Ottawa kiosk website if you would like more information. Other places in Canada I would recommend are Quebec city (because of its beautiful European style) and Nova Scotia, specifically Peggy's Cove (cove with a big light house) because its really fun to climb all the rocks and since you're a geology student you may like that. Anyways I hope this helped, have a great trip!

What are your areas of interest in geology--glaciology, stratigraphy, paleontology, vulcanism, or something else? Where you should go depends on that. The north, huge area, is the world's chief examplar of continental glaciology. The Rockies are great for stratigraphy and paleontology. BC has some excellent areas to look at vulcanology--for example Garibaldi Prov. Park just north of Vancouver enroute to Whistler is an easy place to go to see a volcanic cone and landscape as well as mountain glaciers in action. Or go to northern Alberta to see (hideous) oil sands mining near Ft. McMurray. That is but a tiny sample from a long list of sites in Canada with immense geological interest. The cross country train trip from Toronto via Jasper to Vancouver allows views of the Canadian Shield, the prairies, the Rockies, and the Coastal Mountains and provides a good, if incomplete, overview of Canadian geology. Get a good book on Canadian geology/geomorphology and use it to plan your trip!

The Canadian Rockies are awesome - a thrust belt, Drumheller is a must in Western Canada - Royal Tyrrell Museum of Paleontology and Dinosaur Provincial Park. I'm a retired geologist starting a geo-eco-tour biz in Drumheller - if you are coming this way email me. Free tours for students.
