i just received today my acceptance from the university of Virginia Tech in virginia, USA.
I have until the first of may to send back the form to get the ultimate confirmation and to finalyze my application
On the other hand, I'm waiting for the response of McGill university (Montreal, Quebec, Canada)
And My question is:
DOES ANYONE OF YOU KNOW WHEN THEY WILL BE SENDING THE CONFIRMATIONS?

my problem is that after profound thoughts i came up to myself and said that Canada is better than USA for me as a beginning. I just want to know when will they send the decisions to know how to react, and what to do?

THANKS
Joe
