Hello!
I am an international student from a top-3 university in Canada, and just completed my third year. I received very good grades in my first and second year, however, my mental health took a sharp turn, to the point that my average decreased from 90.5 (2nd year) to 78 (3rd year), and even failed a course. I am now thinking about applying to SFU's graduate school (aiming for the cohort starting on Jan).
Could anyone in the program share their experiences at SFU and give me an idea on the possibility that I got accepted? Feel free to DM and I would be immensely grateful haha.
My current profile :
- Cumulative Average 87.5 / 100 (with a F, unfortunately)
- Five terms of TA experience (4 classes, including a third-year CS course).
- Two Research Experiences (no publications though)
- Core member of a student-led CS organization
- 3x International Student Scholarship
- Member of the ICPC Team (took part in the regional contest, result was alright).
