In summary, the speaker is from India and failed a difficult entrance exam for engineering college. They are considering taking the SAT and TOEFL to apply to US universities, but have heard that Canadian universities have a better environment and are less costly. They are looking for undergraduate programs in computer science or electronics and communication engineering that admit international students. The listener suggests looking at all Canadian universities, as they are likely to admit qualified international undergraduates.

Hi!
I am from India. In India we have very difficult exams to enter engineering college and unfortunately I failed in that exam. Here exams are nearly 10 times more difficult than SAT. So I thought of giving SAT and TOEFL this year to take admission in any US university. But as I've heard that the environment in Canada is much more better than USA and the study is also less costly. But every Canadian college I'd searched is allowing international student for only Post graduate or Research. I am wondering, is there any college which admit international students for undergraduate programs either in Computer Science or Electronics and Communication engineering.

I think you would have a hard time finding one that would not take an international student for Undergrad.

Hello, as a scientist, I understand your frustration with not being able to attend an engineering college in India due to the difficulty of the entrance exams. I can assure you that Canadian engineering colleges also have rigorous academic standards and entrance requirements, but they may differ from those in India.

In terms of your question about international students being admitted for undergraduate programs in Canada, I would recommend doing some more research on specific colleges and their admission policies. Some Canadian engineering colleges do admit international students for undergraduate programs, but it may depend on the specific program and the college's policies.

Additionally, I would suggest reaching out to the admissions offices of the colleges you are interested in to inquire about their policies and any potential opportunities for international students in undergraduate programs. They may also be able to provide you with more information on the costs and benefits of studying in Canada compared to the US.

Overall, I understand your desire to study in a different country and I encourage you to continue your research and reach out to colleges for more information. Best of luck in your academic pursuits!
