I am student of Mechanical Engineering, started in 2008. Due to some circumstances my degree will complete in 2013 instead of 2012. I want to apply in University of Alberta for MEng Engineering Management for September 2013 intake. As applying date is March 1, 2013 so at the time of application my GPA will be 2.3 with few courses to be cleared. However by the end of degree my GPA is expected to be 2.7/4.0.
No work experience i have.

So what are my chances for admission in UofA?

Kyun mazak krtay ho brother ........
I applied last time for M.Sc. civil engineering (Structural). I had CGPA that time about 3.6 and got rejected. I am also from '08 Session.
I have applied again with improved CGPA 3.7 and hoping best for this time.

What I have heard is GPA requirement is high for the MSc programmes out there but as MEng is course based non funded degree, the admission requirements are lower.

You people are talking about the admission to MSc programmes.

But MEng is course based programme not thesis based.. Plus there are no supervisor guidance required for MEng. They are assigned for MSc programme which are research based or thesis based.

The minimum requirements are 65% or first division for Pakistan which equals 2.6 GPA.

So if I fulfill application requirements with a research journal, can i make place there?

email ur research work to professor of ur course. if they r interested in ur research work then they will contact u and ask u to complete the application and submit application fee. if supervisor is interested in ur work that means u r admitted in university. send them email and wait for their response.
