What does it realistically take to get into Colombia's Teaching College?

What does it realistically take to get into Colombia's Teaching College?
I am in my final year as an undergraduate at my state university. I will be graduating in May with honors in Political Science and a minor in Education and a GPA of 3.53 with 3.75 in my major. I am the: President of Sigma Chi Eta, a national honor society for students who excel in speech Vice President of Tau Sigma, a national honor society for transfer students Member of ODK, a national leadership honor society President, Founder, & Coach of the Great Dane Debate Team of UAlbany A volunteer at the Achievement Academy charter middle school And I have other extras like being a member on the schools kickboxing team. I have four years of field experience working in a classroom I am worried though, because I am coming from a SUNY undergrad school that I won't get into an IVY league graduate program. What do you think my chances are honestly? Do I have enough creditials or what else is important to have before going graduate school besides my GRE scores.

One of my own kids went to a very fine undergrad school, then did her Masters at TC. Get an excellent score on the GRE and apply. A bit of reality - after being awarded her Masters, she had to wait in line for jobs with everyone else, including the grads from "Cow Pasture U." Nobody cared about her Ivy League degree - nobody.

Did i miss the messages?


Did i miss the messages?
Okay heres the story this girl who was an international student from Colombia, really beautiful and cute accent needed help getting used to the highschool i am at. So i tried speaking lots of spanish to her and trying to show her around the city. She invited me to her house and as soon as i walk in the parents knew everything about me apprantly she talked about me alot. She called me lindo which means handsome i didn't think anything of it and she said things like i love you which didn't cross my mind because i found South Americans to be very affectionate but she tried to teach me how to salsa dance which i thought was kind of random. But as soon as i told her i got a girlfriend she didn't contact me for atleast 3 weeks. Did she like me or am i just overthinking? Yes aint an answer because im actually asking whether i was overthinking it or not, or did she like me ....

DUDE she liked you. You missed the ques. I understand you had a girlfriend. That brings to question why weren't you up front with this young lady ? I mean here she is new in this country and your school. You take it upon yourself to befriend her, try to speak her language and show her around. She is thinking this guy likes me. She says she loves you and calls you handsome and tries to teach you to Salsa dance. And just what did your girlfriend think about you hanging out with this really beautiful Colombian international student with a cute accent ? You lead her on and then broke her heart. Shame shame..

I'd choose the Canadian site - it's going to cost less than either of the other two, and the opportunities are greater in Canada. Buena suerta!

It sounds like you don't want to go to London so let's look at the other two choices. New York is going to be very expensive and it's a really big city. Pratt is in Brooklyn and is well established. University of Waterloo is one of the best in Canada. Waterloo is also a great medium size city. The school of Architecture however is actually in Cambridge about 20 minutes outside of Waterloo. You can always take the bus into Waterloo where most of the student life is going on. Good luck choosing. I recommend Waterloo.

Am I elegible to study at McGill University?


Am I elegible to study at McGill University?
Hi, I'm an international Student from Colombia. I want to study a BA in athropology at McGill. Does McGill review all the marks of High School or just the marks of the last two years? I have a Bachillerato credential (Colombia's High School). In 10th grade I achieved the equivalent to 3.2 (converted into american GPA) or B as an average. In the last year of Bachillerato (11th grade) I achieved an average of 3.3 or B+. In McGill's web there isn't enough information about the admission criteria, So, I don't know if it's possible to get into McGill with my current marks. By the way, Do I need to take the ACT or SAT tests?. In McGill's web there isn't information about that, but, I've read in several forums about that people that are international students talk about those test as requirement. those test are mandatory for american students but I don't know if it is mandatory for other countries, I'm kinda confused. Also, I want to know if getting into McGill's anthropology department is too difficult Lastly, What do you recomend me to do for getting into McGill? Thanks a Lot

Contact one of the recruiters or advisors from McGill, preferably from the Anthropology department. They will be able to answer all your questions.
