I dont know wheather Bernard is troll or not; and I dont even care because I think it is not the point. The point is he is: Is he right? He made important notes. First, about the economy of Canada. It is totaly true that Canada has a powerful and great economy. But please be aware that we are comparing it with the US. Its economy vividly depends on oil and I think it is less relyable in the coparsion of the US. I found out that the point about UofT is true. They are facing lots of problems these days because of the reduction in the price of oil. The second point is about the opportunity of finding job. The atmosphere of professional career is so competetive and I think companies and universities are reluctunt to hire someone who hase a PhD from out of US. Bernard is saying the truth: everybody knows that the US is the land of opportunities. So do you think McGill is still a great option?!!

Guys.... please be friend...

Thank all of you for your help. I had doubt about my decision, but after reading your replies, I think I am going to accept McGill Once again, thank you all and wish you the bests,

Thank you very much for your replies, and for your time. It was a great help. Wish the best for all of you.

Hi everyone, I have got admission for PhD in Chemical Engineering from McGill, Pennsylvania State (PennState), and University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Since I am an international student, I need to get student visa. Canada usually offers multiple entry visa for students from my country; however, the visa for United States is single entry; which means if I leave US during my education, I will not be able to return to US again (This is a usual situation for students from my country.) In the other words, I cannot see my family and parents for about 5 years. It is a really tough choice. UIUC and Pennstate have great reputations in my field, also has McGill. Additionally, I guess a PhD degree from US can make an inevitable progress in my career, but being far from family can make the leaving situation pretty hard. I would be glad to hear about your ideas.
