Hi folks, my name is Jai Hardy, I am a Research Coordinator at Sheridan College, and along with my Research Supervisor, Bethany Osborne, we are doing a research study on student usage of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tools in higher education here in Canada. The purpose of the study is to understand how students currently attending higher education in Canada interact with AI in assignments and evaluation, focusing on ethical versus unethical uses. A better understanding of how students in Canada are interacting with this emerging technology in higher education will help to shape the future development guidelines and practices that prioritize ethical AI use in higher education, ultimately aiming to prepare students for a successful future in an AI-influenced world.

We are seeking current students enrolled in Canadian higher education such as College, University, or Private Career College to complete an anonymous online survey that should take 10-15 minutes of your time, participation is voluntary. Any questions about participating should be directed to either co-investigator. The results of the study will be shared in an aggregate manner with no identifying information. If you're interested in taking part, click on this link for more details and to fill out the survey, or scan the QR code.

Please feel free to share this information along with the attached poster and link to the survey to anyone you know attending a Canadian higher education institute who might be interested participating in this anonymous study.

I have never felt like this in my life, but I am having a full-on existential crisis about what to do. I live in Vancouver Canada and I was accepted to McGill, Western, Queens, UVic and SFU all for a bachelor of arts in Psychology I'm waiting for back from my #1 choice, UBC....

I got into SFU with a $40,000 scholarship but I'm worried I do not like the school... So that in itself is a problem. I feel like I don't like the architecture and the students tend to be very introverted/awkward there for some reason. But, at that school, I want to switch from psychology to either labour studies or economics.

If I go into economics I will have a way better career trajectory and more lucrative opportunities + I decently enjoyed economics in high school, however, university economics is way harder of course. I am usually really bad with numbers and I am currently only getting a 60% in Foundations 11 and 12 while all my other courses are generally 90%-100%. The good thing is I can switch to Economics first year because they don't have a pre-calculus prerequisite like other schools do, but they have Calculus 1 for social sciences which frightens me + the other hard math courses. I would need to maintain a high GPA to maintain the scholarship too.

If I go into Labour Studies, I feel as if I will enjoy my degree a lot. I enjoy the courses they offer and it looks interesting to me, but I will be pigeonholed to HR-type jobs and I won't make a lot of money. I want to be financially set and even wealthy, and the absolute most I could make would be $200,000 if I got this degree and my masters in Industrial Organizational Psychology.

Or I could throw away the scholarship and SFU entirely and do Psychology at a higher-ranking school such as McGill or Queens....

Overall, I want to make the right decision and I want to do well for myself financially. I am freaking out so badly I can't eat. Even if there are any degrees I have never heard of that you think might be good for me, just let me know anything. If you have any suggestions please let me know it would be appreciated more than words can say. Thank you!

I would like to apply for a master's in Environmental engineering, but i don't know which university to consider my top option: Concordia or McGill? in terms of acceptance rate, funding, experience in general, etc (also i'm an international student so i'm also looking for a good international experience lol)

Hi

Homeschooled International seniors please help!

I am currently being home schooled in Singapore and I have a Canadian PR. I want to enter science stream at University of Regina.

I want to know whether I would face any difficulties to get into the university since am being homeschooled outside of Canada?
I want to know whether my parent could certify my transcript? Am planning to take edexcel IALs, is that certificate enough to enter apart from SAT.

Thank you in advance.

Hey everyone!

I recently landed a summer internship in a research lab and secured the NSERC CRSNG Bursary worth 6000 CAD. As part of the requirements, the supervisor is expected to pay at least 25% of this amount.

During our initial discussion about the bursary, my supervisor expressed the need for additional funding beyond the 25%, and I want to approach this conversation well-prepared.

For those with experience in academia , could you share your insights on how much I should consider asking my supervisor for the remaining stipend? I want to ensure that the request is fair and reasonable without falling into any pitfalls or being taken advantage of.

Your advice and experiences would be incredibly helpful as I navigate this aspect of my summer internship. Thanks in advance!

TLDR at the bottom

Hi. I plan on going to graduate school but I have a 3 years bachelors in Biological sciences and I am from India. The international credential equivalency page says for India -

"3-year Bachelor's from institutions with a NAAC rating of "A"; 2 year Master's awarded beyond a 3-year Bachelor's from institutions with a NAAC rating below "A"

I am currently enrolled in Siddharth College of Arts, Science & Commerce in the program Biological Sciences, which is rated as B+ according to NAAC. This college is affiliated to the "University of mumbai" which has a rating of A++. University of mumbai is also my degree granting university, so I will have my degree and transcripts from University of Mumbai.

So which college's rating is considered? Am I eligible to apply? I asked the Graduate office and they said that it will evaluated after you apply, and to make sure I meet the minimum requirements, but I am confused about this.

TLDR - The requirements says 3 years bachelors from NAAC A insitutitions is acceptable. The college I go to is B+ and the university to which it is affiliated is A+. Am I eligible?

Recently I was accused of academic integrity and the consequence was failing the course and needing to take an academic integrity class. I feel very guilty about it and thinking back to it, knowing that I shouldn’t have done it. I’m currently enrolled in a class to get that credit back and trying to get my academics back on track. Is there anyone I can rant/talk to about this. I just need someone to listen and give advice about how this will effect me going into other university programs.
