@VMT WOW! Thanks you so much for the detailed info. Very helpful! From you say I don’t think I will enjoy WPI’s 7 weeks system and as I procrastinate a lot! And I usually need a little bit more time to really understand a new topic. And McGill “reading week” seems like it will really help me. Also everyone I’ve spoken to about this decision has emphasised on Montreal. So that’s a big plus for McGill. WPI has smaller class sizes and I would really like that but that’s really the only thing I think WPI has over McGill. I would like to ask a few more questions though

Can I easily get a campus job at both schools?

Can you comment about the facilities in both universities? McGill's endowment is about 1.4 billion but WPI's 400 million. But WPI is a private so does this make a difference? How are the labs in both schools.

I think I read somewhere that McGill emphasises more on theory. is this true??

How are the internship opportunities? what kind of firms recruit from both schools

How do the starting salaries for computer engineering fare?

Is it easy to obtain permanent residency in the Canada?

If I want to do my graduate school in the US. Will it be easy for me to study in the US. And after this will I be required to go back in canada or I can stay in the US if I find a job there?

Since you have a daughter at WPI, what can you tell me about the school? How are the dorms and bathrooms? (Ive heard AND seen pretty miserable things about it)

What do you think WPI has over McGill? why do you I would like to go to WPI?
