Hi! I am seeking for some advice I am aiming for MsC or PhD programs in USA / Canada Your comments will be a big help Undergrad Institution: Top 3 university in a country (Asia) Major: Psychology / Statistics GPA: 3.83 Major GPA: 3.89 Type of Student: International Asian Undergrad Courses: Calculus 1(A+), Calculus 2(B+), Analysis 1(B+), Linear Algebra(A), Statistical Inference(A), Mathematical Statistics(A+), Design of Experiments(A), Regression Analysis(A+), Statistical Data Mining(A), Statistics(A+), Stochastic Processes(A+), Biostatistics(A+), Statistical Programming(A+) GRE: Did not take Q: V: W: Math GRE: Programs Applying: Statistics Msc / PhD Research Experience: Only working experience: 3 months internship in a marketing research company -Participated in the project of highly famous global companies will start working in a statistics consulting company Recommendation Letter: 1 from a Psychology professor 2 from Statistics professors Computing Skills: R, SAS, SPSS, AMOS Teaching Experience: Have taught Mathematics to high/middle school students for 2 years Applying to: McGill (MSc) U of T (MSc) UBC (MSc) Alberta (MSc) Waterloo (MSc) Concerns: Lack of research experience The reason why I apply to Canadian university is because it is more likely to get funding for master's degree. However, if my profile is acceptable enough, I also plan to apply to direct PhD programs in USA after taking GRE. So, I would like to ask if it seems there is any possibility to get funding from those Canadian universities and if my profile is enough to apply to direct PhD programs in mid-ranking USA universities. Thank you for reading!
