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!
